User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:12.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/12.0
Build ID: 20120420145725

Steps to reproduce:

An object's method, such as below, is called

	smthMethod: function(args) {
		// var a = arguments; // without this line this.smthMethod.caller===null
		return this.smthMethod.caller.$previous.apply(this, args);
	}



Actual results:

The Function.caller property is null. But if arguments is used all ok.


Expected results:

The Function.caller property should returns the function that invoked this method.
