  Function declaration as property causes "too much recursion" error on Firefox

  JavaScript crushes on Firefox with the following error:
  error: InternalError: too much recursion

  Here is sample:

  class Test {
  static function main() {
  var obj1 = new WithFunction(WithFunction.EqualF());
  for (i in 0...1000) {
  obj1 = obj1.clone();
  }

  obj1.test(1, 2);
  }
  }

  typedef TestFunction = Int -> Int -> Bool
  class WithFunction{
  public var fun (default, null): TestFunction;

  public function new(funArg: TestFunction) {this.fun = funArg; }

  public function clone(): WithFunction {
  return new WithFunction(fun);
  }
  public function test(val1: Int, val2: Int): Bool {
  return fun(val1, val2);
  }
  public static function EqualF(): TestFunction {
  return function(v1: Int, v2: Int) {
  return v1 == v2;
  };
  }
  }

  The declaration "public var fun (default, null): TestFunction;" causes the problem. If the declaration "public var fun: TestFunction;" is used then everything works fine.

  Platform:
  OSX 10.5.8
  Firefox: 3.6.8

  I cannot reproduce this (Linux, same Firefox version). What version of haxe are you using ? I'm on 2.05
