Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6b) Gecko/20031218
Firebird/0.7+

Steps to reproduce:
1. javascript:alert({a:33,})

Result in Firebird: works as if the comma weren't there
Result in IE:       error: "Expected identifier, string or number"

I noticed this bug because IE rejected my code after Mozilla ran it.
The most I'd do is a strict mode warning.  Wait, I already do that.  Use
options.strict and options.werror if you must, or set the javascript. prefs.
