- * FIXME: [Bug 736729]
- *
- * When a varName is looked from a namespace different from the
- * global one, there is no corresponding variable in the namespace and
- * there is a "zombie" variable in the global namespace (ie, the
- * varName is in the hash table, but the variable is unset), this code
- * returns a reference to the zombie. It should instead create a
- * variable in the namespace.

- * Fix in progress - that it is not here yet may indicate that the
- * picture above is incomplete or wrong.
