Can you give more data on the SquirrelFish regression:

* Is access to a global from a named anonymous function slower in SF than it
was before SF?

* How big (%) is the regression?

The cause of the relative slowness is that, according to the spec, a named
anonymous function should have a vanilla (i.e. unoptimized) object inserted
into its scope chain, with one property: the function's name. 

We can / should improve this situation, but that's how things are implemented
today (and how they've always been implemented).
