and internal equivalent, so we can pop a local root scope without leaving a return value or similar such "result" unrooted.

Igor, please feel free to review too.  The js_LeaveLocalRootScopeWithResult code needs to be read in full, so I used more unified diff context.

proposed fix

Throughout this patch, you use JSVAL_NULL as a "not a real return" value. I think that it's better to use JSVAL_VOID, since that isn't a gcthing, and therefore, won't be pushed onto the stack.

This is no longer necessary, right?

I'll never understand your reluctance to use JSVAL_VOID, but it doesn't matter, so r=mrbkap.

Simple: JSVAL_VOID takes some work to synthesize (via immediate operands) or load (from a 32-bit constant).  JSVAL_NULL is 0.  So the test in the callee is cheaper than all the uses in the callers.
