LayoutTests/js/dom/eval-keyword-vs-function.html

<p>
This page verifies that eval has two meanings:
<ol>
    <li>An operator: executes a script in local scope with the local scope's variable object and "this" object.</li>
    <li>A global function: executes a script in global scope with the global scope's variable object and "this" object.</li>
</ol>
Meaning #2 should remain constant even if the global eval function is copied
into a global variable ("globalEval") or a local variable ("localEval").
</p>
<p>If the test passes, you'll see a series of pass messages below.</p>
