I have always wanted to stuff an array in resolve hook, but I dont
know how to replace the default resolver function of a *particular*
array (created with JS_NewArrayObject())with my own resolver function. 
I could create a new special array class, but then I will have to 
duplicate  all the functionality that is already there in the 
present array implementation.
