JS REPLs tend to parse input as Program productions. Parsing "{} + {}" as a
block followed by a unary expression is correct according to ES5 grammar for
Program. IE behaves the same.

Ah! Good call. And, as expected, wrapping the first operand in parens makes the
problem go away.
REPL input is tricky to parse correctly in JS, kind of between statements and
expressions.
