Is it possible to fix Rhino up so that the name of the function that
was intended to be called instead of 'undefined'?

test.js:
object = {};
object.something();

$> java -jar js.jar test.js
TypeError: undefined is not a function.

I've got quite a bunch of Javascript for business logic, and
'undefined' is costing me a lot of time finding the errors.

$> java -jar js.jar -opt -1 test.js
TypeError: something is not a function.

Much better.  I can search my js source code for 'something' and fix
the bug in notime.

My guess is that the non -1 opt level's generated bytecodes has a bug
where it doesn't or can't report the name of the function that was
intended to be called.
