Why not set bound.prototype = target.prototype directly? #463

function f () {}
var b = f.bind({});
new f instanceof b;// true in native, but false in shim

When I overwrite Function.prototype.bind in my current browser with the shim's implementation, new f instanceof b returns true for me. In what browser are you seeing it return false?

(Note that it would be incorrect to set it directly; b.prototype !== f.prototype in native)

IE 6 7 8 all print false.

In current shim, B.prototype is instance of F, in other words, new F and B.prototype are same level instance.

(! ( B.prototype instanceof F ) in native too)
