Build Identifier: helios for java ee

Out of curiosity of how Helios Javascript validator parses, I have open different versions (1.3.2 and 1.4.1) of jquery source code files in Helios.
The javascript validator shows errors in the js editor error ruler (on the right side). Nothing is indicated in the Problems view though.

This is not about jquery content assist; i'd just like, if possible, to not see errors in these files. Maybe they are not indeed correct? (not respecting the JS grammar).

Thank you very much.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. just paste jquery-1.3.2.js and jquery-1.4.1.js javascript source code files in the web content of a static web project
2. errors are indicated for this source code.
3.

It's not just the use of "undefined" as a variable name.

There are other errors that JSDT marks for jquery-1.3.2.js and jquery-1.4.1.js.

For example, for 1.4.1, on these lines:

*********************************************************
while ( (chunker.exec(""), m = chunker.exec(soFar)) !== null ) {
...
}
*********************************************************

it says "Synthaw error on token ',', . expected"

Pls open jquery-1.4.1.js and take a look.


For example, for 1.3.2, on these lines:
*********************************************************
window = this,
*********************************************************

it says "Synthaw error on token ',', ; expected"

Pls open jquery-1.3.2.js and take a look.



I attached another example of error.
