Hi!

In the current SM parent scope for functions of the standard host 
objects points to the object itself and not to the global scope so:

js> Math.sin.__parent__ == Math
true
js>  Math.sin.__parent__
[object Math]
js> Math.sin.__parent__.__parent__
[object global]
js>

Any reason for that? It seems ECMA 262 is silent on this issue.

Regards, Igor
