FunctionDeclaration should be defined in a variable scope

I had to update the version of gulp to pass tests.

Thank you for filing this issue.

What do you mean?
FunctionDeclaration should not be defined in a variable scope in ES6.
For example,

{
  // block scope
  function test() { }
}

In this example, function name test is defined in the block scope.

And in ES5 side, function declaration is not allowed inside a block. So above script should be treated as SyntaxError in ES5 side.

How about the following case? It actually works in node.js and browsers.

try {} catch (e) {
  function test() {}
}

I've read spec and got it.

When

try {} catch (e) {
  function test() {}
} 

is executed, catch (e) creates new scope for e and after that, block

{
  function test() {}
} 

creates innser scope and test is defined to this block scope.

To support it completely, we need to refine escope for ES6. But currently escope only supports ES5 script and anyway function declaration doesn't create variable to VariableEnvironment.

Could you file the issue support ES6?

And I appreciate it if you would create PR for updating gulp :)

[nkzawa]

Ah, got that you respect spec than how it works in actual environments.

I sent PR for updating gulp anyway.
Regarding support ES6, I can't create the issue since I don't know ES6 so much, sorry for that :(

I've filed the tracking issue. #33 :)
