Many of those have to do with primitive errorCode support, and it
would be nice to categorize them separately. I didn't look closely,
but those that have to do with variable bindings are likely to be
irrelevant.

And sorry, but adding #asAlien to True, False and UndefinedObject is
just wrong. Nor should have it been in String from the start.
