Description bsw 2014-02-04 12:51:53 PST
If a function calls Object.freeze on itself, the call errors with "[Error] TypeError: Attempting to change value of a readonly property."

Example:

function freezeIt(obj) {
    Object.freeze(obj);
}

freezeIt(freezeIt);


This is inconsistent both with the ECMA specification and with the behavior in Chrome/V8.
