Subj : JS_DefineFunction creates its own JSObject

Hello,

SpiderMonkey references says:

<<
JS_GetFunctionObject retrieves the object for a specified function 
pointer, fun. All functions are associated with an underlying object. 
For functions you create with JS_NewFunction, the object is 
automatically created for you. For functions you define with 
JS_DefineFunction and JS_DefineFunctions, you specify the object(s) as a 
parameter.

However, reading the source code, it seems to me that JS_DefineFunction
does create a fresh JSObject for the function (js_DefineFunction
pass NULL as the second argument to js_NewFunction).

Can somebody confirm this is indeed the case?
