    ECMA Section:       Activation Object
    Description:

    If the function object being invoked has an arguments property, let x be
    the value of that property; the activation object is also given an internal
    property [[OldArguments]] whose initial value is x; otherwise, an arguments
    property is created for the function object but the activation object is
    not given an [[OldArguments]] property. Next, arguments object described
    below (the same one stored in the arguments property of the activation
    object) is used as the new value of the arguments property of the function
    object. This new value is installed even if the arguments property already
    exists and has the ReadOnly attribute (as it will for native Function
    objects). (These actions are taken to provide compatibility with a form of
    program syntax that is now discouraged: to access the arguments object for
    function f within the body of f by using the expression f.arguments.
    The recommended way to access the arguments object for function f within
    the body of f is simply to refer to the variable arguments.)
