Comment 1 Oliver Hunt 2009-01-02 15:57:17 PST
Finally worked out the cause of this.

in the expression
 eval("try { throw } catch(e){ /* handler */ }")

The eval code will be compiled such that the handler will have an expected scope depth of 0.  However if we place the eval inside a with() (or similar),

with({}) eval("try { throw } catch(e){ /* handler */ }")

We encounter a problem -- eval works in the local scope of the function the calls it -- eg. the base of the eval scope is the top of the scope chain at the point it is called.  This means we get the following scope chain behaviour:

[G] -- global object
[G,activation] -- enter the function
[G,activation, {}] -- enter with
[G,activation, {}] -- call eval
[G,activation, {}] -- throw.  At this point we find the exception handler and it says the expected scope depth is *zero*
[G,activation] -- unwound the stack
[G] -- exit with, and whoops, we have just dropped the activation :-O
