839027 - Kill object typeof hook

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect)

Description

[Tom S [:evilpie]]

With e4x gone and the window.all hack gone, we are able to remove typeof hacks. Because checking for [[Call]] should to the right thing (TM).

Try run looks good, assuming we have sufficient tests. https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=16f8f8eb81e3

Attachment: remove typeof hook

I just ripped out everything until it compiled. I think we can simplify some JIT code and maybe also remove JSType somehow.

The comment added here is rather baffling. Just remove it?
