    ECMA Section:       The variable statement
    Description:

    If the variable statement occurs inside a FunctionDeclaration, the
    variables are defined with function-local scope in that function, as
    described in section 10.1.3. Otherwise, they are defined with global
    scope, that is, they are created as members of the global object, as
    described in section 0. Variables are created when the execution scope
    is entered. A Block does not define a new execution scope. Only Program and
    FunctionDeclaration produce a new scope. Variables are initialized to the
    undefined value when created. A variable with an Initializer is assigned
    the value of its AssignmentExpression when the VariableStatement is executed,
    not when the variable is created.
