Oops, missed the earlier error -- the JS shell gives an error per 
complete compile-able input unit (line, typically), and I was pasting to 
its stdin:

js> is.sac = (a.b.c().d("")> 0) ? 1 : 0;
13: ReferenceError: a is not defined
js> is.mac = (a.b.c().d("")> 0) ? 1 : 0;
14: ReferenceError: a is not defined

Anyway, no a global variable is set, so something's missing from the 
testcase -- right?
