[CLJS-434] ClojureScript compiler prepends "self__" to defmulti forms when metadata in form of ^:field.

Sun, 20 Jan 2013 00:54:25 -0600

Using the def form, with the specific metadata ^:field causes the cljs compiler
to prepend "self__" to the output js form.

The browser (latest chrome/firefox) does not recognize "self__".

Test Case: Tested against master: 5ac1503
-------------

(ns test-def)

(def ^:foo e identity)
e
; test_def.e = cljs.core.identity;
; test_def.e;

(def ^:field f identity)
f
; test_def.f = cljs.core.identity;
; self__.test_def.f;
; Uncaught ReferenceError: self__ is not defined
