In JS1.7, we followed Python, which uses def, same as for defining a
function, and distinguishes generators by presence of yield (which
makes value returns illegal). It seems unwise to diverge from Python
without more evidence of an actual usability problem. We have no such
evidence from shipping JS1.7 and up in Firefox 2 and up.
