"get" and "set" are valid names for generator methods.

Expected: No SynaxError
Actual: SyntaxError thrown


js> ({*get(){}})
typein:1:3 SyntaxError: invalid property id:
typein:1:3 ({*get(){}})
typein:1:3 ...^


js> ({*set(){}}) 
typein:2:3 SyntaxError: invalid property id:
typein:2:3 ({*set(){}})
typein:2:3 ...^

Fix is trivial. Just wait a little longer before complaining.

So this works, but it "overparses" beyond the tokens it should parse, before ungetting and continuing onward.  What if instead we replaced the if-else if-else modified above like so:

            if (!isGenerator && (atom == context->names().get || atom == context->names().set)) {
                op = (atom == context->names().get)
                     ? JSOP_INITPROP_GETTER
                     : JSOP_INITPROP_SETTER;
            } else {
                propname = handler.newIdentifier(atom, pos());
                if (!propname)
                    return null();
                break;
            }

Then we don't need this hunk down here, we don't have to wonder how all the code between here and there handles this (and whether it does so correctly), and things are generally much nicer.  +4,-12 versus +6,-8.

Oh, and you don't have a test in the patch.  Need to see those to ensure we cover all the bases here, in code and test-wise too.

I think lining up ? and : underneath the "a" in atom is more common, tho it's not quite codified in the style rules.

Add more tests for other failure modes, each duplicated for get and set:

({ *get 1() {} });
({ *get ""() {} });
({ *get foo() {} });
({ *get []() {} });
({ *get [1]() {} });

Also modify jit-test/tests/basic/syntax-error-illegal-character.js in the "object: method" section to have test("({ * get @"); test("({ * get ( @"); test("({ * get () @"); test("({ * get () { @"); test("({ * get () {} @"); test("({ * get () {}, @"); in it (and the same for set, as well).
