Serialization of JavaScript values does not appear to respect new HTML5 Structured Clone semantics

[Luke Zarko]

The layout tests at fast/dom/Window/window-postmessage-clone.html and fast/dom/Window/window-postmessage-clone-really-deep-array.html differ from the expected results in platform/chromium (both with the integration of the patch for https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65286). Ideally the platform-specific expectations should be eliminated and the behavior of all platforms would be harmonized.

[David Levin]

This is about a fix that needs to happen the structured clone implementation in bindings/js.

[Luke Zarko]

The legacy behavior for postMessage differs between Chrome and Safari for https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65209 -- where Chrome forbids MessagePorts from appearing within a message, Safari allows it but serializes them as plain Objects.

Are the posted String/Boolean/Number objects expected to transfer expands? (a la Arrays)

Also this appears to result in breaking object identity semantics.  eg. foo=new String(s); bar = {a:foo, b:foo}; postMessage(bar)  will produce an object with data.a !== data.b despite bar.a === bar.b

If this is expected behaviour according to the spec i would consider it a spec bug.

I added the symbols to Source/JavaScriptCore/JavaScriptCore.order. Any idea why I'm still getting linking errors on Mac?

To export symbols from core you should add them to Source/WebCore/WebCore.exp.in

AFAIK, WebCore.exp.in is used to export symbols from WebCore to WebKit API. In my case, I need to export symbols from JavaScriptCore to WebCore.
