Box2d and Processing.js don't mix

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Including Box2D and Processing on the same page will break it.

Firefox console outputs:
18:12:22.618: Exception: missing ( before formal parameters Source File: 
file:///C:/b2d/processing.js Line: 17949, Column: 16 Category: content

Here is why:
Box2dWeb defines valueOf() in Object.prototype which provides an unique id for 
each object. This allows using objects as keys and simulates 
flash.utils.Dictionary-behavior:

var d = new flash.utils.Dictionary;
d[{foo: bar}] = "foobar";

Processing.js defines toString at some places in the processing-code -to- 
Javascript compiler. Unfortunately valueOf seems to have higher precedence.

So maybe I can fix it, by making valueOf return the toString() value, if 
available as a workaround.

I'm currently working on version 2.0 of my converter. I hope I can remove the 
valueOf-override at all by improving type-tracking.
