The V8 bindings for R create a context and then set the 'console' property 
to implement console.log() and console.warn()

    v8::Local<v8::ObjectTemplate> console = 
v8::ObjectTemplate::New(isolate);
    global->Set(String::NewFromUtf8(isolate, "console"), console);
    console->Set(String::NewFromUtf8(isolate, "log"), 
      v8::FunctionTemplate::New(isolate, ConsoleLog));
    ...
    Persistent<Context> context = Context::New(isolate, NULL, global);

This works on all systems except on Fedora (v8 6.7.17) it crashes when 
initiating the context:

  # Fatal error in ../../src/objects.cc, line 5983
  # Debug check failed: !it.IsFound().

After some trial and error I discovered that it does not crash if I change 
the name of the property something else than "console". Hence I suppose 
this name is somehow reserved on this version of V8? Is there a some way to 
override this, or alternatively test if 'global.console' has been reserved 
so I should not attempt to set it?
