It seems you have a need for a working ECMAScript ANTLR grammar. Two
options:

You could take either of the existing non-working grammars (v2 is probably
the logical choice at this point given the wealth of working samples and
documentation[1*]) and improve it till it does what you want.

Or, try to find out what happened to Cesar's ANTLR grammar. He was writing
an ECMAScript compiler for the Mono project using ANTLR a few years ago (he
eventually switched to using a port of Rhino).

In either case, you could then contribute the improved grammar back to the
grammar repository.
