*This test arose from Bugzilla bug 58946.
*The bug was filed when we got the following error (see code below):
*
*                          "ReferenceError: e is not defined"
*
*There was no error if we replaced "return e" in the code below with "print(e)".
*There should be no error with "return e", either  -
