String conversion for numbers occurs in org.mozilla.javascript.DToA which was obviously originally written in C. Has someone already evaluated removing this class to use Java standard String conversion facilities?
I'd love it if we could compatibly jettison org.mozilla.javascript.DToA in favor of standard Java methods, but haven't looked at it.

Like bug #664523, this is fixed with the patch for bug #548857 and also works in our ported version of V8-DToA.

Regarding using Java metods like java.lang.Double.toString(): I investigated in this, but unfortunately, ES has different requirements (if I remember correctly it requires the string to represent the smallest number that will parse to the original bits).
