James Howe commented on COUCHDB-1397:
-------------------------------------

The string "function(doc) {}" *isnt* invalid JavaScript - it's just a string. It only becomes an anonymous function at global scope if you pass it directly to eval().

> New SpiderMonkey releases do not eval() a sole anonymous function expression. That is not a valid JavaScript statement, and so it is not a valid JavaScript script.
> COUCHDB-1302 addressed this for 1.1 and the 1.1.x branch. This ticket is for 1.2. (Sorry to spam COUCHDB-1302. I saw "Unassigned" and read "Unresolved.")
