r=me with the change below:

> Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSCell.cpp:158
> +    if (isString())
> +        return static_cast<const JSString*>(this)->toObject(exec, globalObject);
> +    return static_cast<const JSObject*>(this)->toObject(exec, globalObject);

I think it would be better, in the object case, to ASSERT(isObject()) and then static_cast to JSObject*, and remove JSObject::toObject entirely. No need to have that identity function anymore, now that we're not using virtual functions.

Should we consider inlining this in JSString.h?
