`let` works as expected:

    » for (let x of ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']) { console.log(x); }
      foo
      bar
      baz
    « undefined

`const` unexpectedly throws:

    » for (const y of ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']) { console.log(y); }
    × SyntaxError: missing = in const declaration

Both work identically in Chrome.
