That is not the original implementation. The code you see there was an aborted attempt to specify and implement JS2. Brendan Eich wasn't involved, Waldemar is now at Google, and Netscape burned up somewhere in there.

The original implementation was written in C by Brendan Eich, and shipped in Netscape 2. The code currently used in Mozilla Firefox is a direct descendant of that.
