No issues found, but this touches precedence-sensitive number/undefined emission in the printer (which every transpiled file goes through), so worth a maintainer glance at the wrap/use_identifier refactor and the per-file symbol scan.
What was reviewed:
- Verified the Infinity
wraprefactor is behavior-preserving when!IS_JSON && !shadows_infinity(De Morgan on the old condition); the only divergence is IS_JSON no longer wrapping at Multiply, which is unreachable in JSON contexts. - Checked the NaN
wrap = level.gte(Multiply)threshold againstx / ?,x ** ?, andtypeof ?— parens are required in each and are emitted. - Confirmed
print_space_before_identifier()before the leading0is correct (digits are identifier-continue, soreturn 0/0gets its space). compute_shadowed_globalsruns in both entry points;print_ast'ssymbols_for_source.iter().flatten()is single-source in the transpiler path (init_with_one_list), andprint_with_writer_and_platformscans onlyast.symbols(per-file).
Extended reasoning...
Overview
Adds three printer-option flags (shadows_undefined / shadows_nan / shadows_infinity) computed once per print by scanning the file's symbol table for any non-Unbound binding of that name. When set, print_undefined and print_number fall back to the expression form (void 0, 0/0, 1/0) instead of emitting the bare global identifier for a synthesized value. number_property_key_must_be_computed is updated so a NaN/Infinity key that now prints as a division is emitted computed. Both print entry points (print_ast, print_with_writer_and_platform) call compute_shadowed_globals. Seven new tests in bundler_edgecase.test.ts cover each name × minify state plus a bun -e spawn for the runtime-transpiler NaN path.
Security risks
None. Pure JS-output correctness; no auth, crypto, filesystem, or untrusted-input parsing is touched.
Level of scrutiny
Medium-high. src/js_printer/lib.rs is a hot, precedence-sensitive path — every bundled and runtime-transpiled file flows through print_number / print_undefined. The change is small and well-reasoned, but the wrap logic for infinities was refactored into a use_identifier local, and the new NaN branch introduces its own wrap threshold; both deserve a second pair of eyes. I checked that the Infinity refactor is a De Morgan equivalence when the new flag is false (old (!has_run_symbol_renamer || minify_syntax) == new !use_identifier for !IS_JSON && !shadows_infinity), that Level::Multiply is the right wrap threshold for 0/0 (needed for x / ?, x ** ?, typeof ?), and that print_space_before_identifier() before a leading digit is correct since digits are identifier-continue.
Other factors
- The approach is deliberately conservative (module-wide flag from any nested shadow) and matches esbuild's rule per the PR description; a maintainer may want to confirm that tradeoff is fine and that the extra linear symbol scan per printed file is acceptable in the bundler hot path.
compute_shadowed_globalsmatches onoriginal_name, so it fires even after the renamer has renamed the local — over-conservative but sound, and #35575 already reserves these names in renamer paths.- Existing snapshot tests that emit
NaN/1 / 0(e.g.EnumInliningNanBoxedEncoding,ConstantFoldingBitwiseCoersion) don't declare shadowing bindings, so their captures are unchanged. - The
let mut opts = opts;hoist inprint_astis safe:symbolsis only borrowed for the scan and later moved into the renamer; nothing between the old and new positions mutatesopts.

No bugs found, but deferring to a human: this touches the printer hot path and there's an open design choice between this approach (per-file symbol-table scan) and #36122 (renamer-gated + reserved names) that a maintainer should pick between — the author explicitly offered to close whichever isn't wanted.
What was reviewed:
- Precedence/wrapping for the new
0/0NaN fallback mirrors the existing1/0Infinity path (level.gte(Multiply),print_space_before_identifierbefore the leading digit). - Both print entry points (
print_astfor the runtime transpiler/REPL,print_with_writer_and_platformfor the bundler) are covered; each scans a single file's symbols. number_property_key_must_be_computedupdated so a NaN/Infinity key that now prints as0/0/1/0is emitted computed.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
Adds three per-file printer flags (shadows_undefined/_nan/_infinity) computed by scanning the file's symbol table for any non-Unbound binding of that name, and gates the three sites in src/js_printer/lib.rs that re-materialize a folded value as a bare global identifier. Seven new itBundled tests plus a bun -e spawn cover the runtime-transpiler path.
Security risks
None. Pure code-generation correctness; no untrusted input handling, no auth/crypto/permissions.
Level of scrutiny
Moderate-to-high. js_printer runs on every transpiled/bundled file, so both correctness and per-file overhead matter. I traced the callers of print_ast (repl.rs, bundler/transpiler.rs) — both pass a single-file symbol map, so the added scan is O(symbols in one file). The bundler path scans ast.symbols (also single-file). The wrap/precedence logic for the new NaN 0/0 fallback matches the existing Infinity 1/0 code exactly, and print_space_before_identifier before the leading digit prevents return0/0-style token gluing (verified against its implementation at lib.rs:1878).
Other factors
The main reason to defer rather than approve: PR #36122 fixes the same bug with a different mechanism (gating on has_run_symbol_renamer + seeding reserved names), and the author's own comment says either is sound and offers to close whichever isn't wanted. That's a design decision for a maintainer, not a bot. The comment-cop inline comments on the PR are all resolved (doc comments were trimmed in later commits).

I reviewed the current push and didn't find any bugs. Since this changes how the JS printer emits NaN/undefined/Infinity for every transpiled file and adds with-nesting state to the printer, a human look is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
print_numberNaN branch:Level::Multiplywrap threshold andprint_space_before_identifier()placement match the existing1 / 0Infinity path exactly.- Infinity
as_identifierrefactor is behavior-preserving outsidewithbodies (and slightly more correct in theIS_JSONedge — old code could wrapInfinityin parens there). EImportIdentifierbump toLevel::Callon**LHS does not over-parenthesize resolved imports (identifiers/property accesses print aboveCall); only thevoid 0fallback gets wrapped.with_nestingis incremented after thewith (expr)value prints and only around the body — the value expression correctly stays outside the shadowed scope.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR changes src/js_printer/lib.rs so that synthesized undefined/NaN/Infinity values print as void 0/0 / 0/1 / 0 when a same-named binding exists in the file or when inside a with body, on the non-bundler print path (print_ast) where no renamer moves the binding aside. It adds a ShadowedGlobalNames scan over the symbol table, a with_nesting counter, three *_is_global_here() helpers, and bumps RuntimeTranspilerCache EXPECTED_VERSION 29→30. The ** LHS handling gains an EImportIdentifier arm since a missing import can now print as void 0. Tests span Bun.Transpiler output shape, spawned runtime execution, and bundled with bodies with cross-file const enums, in both minify states.
Security risks
None. This is output-shape logic in the JS printer with no parsing of untrusted external input, no auth/crypto/permissions surface, and no allocation-size arithmetic. The symbol scan reads an already-built symbol table.
Level of scrutiny
High — the JS printer sits on the path of every transpiled and bundled file, and precedence/parenthesization bugs surface as syntax errors or silent value changes in user code. I traced the new NaN branch against the pre-existing Infinity branch line-by-line (wrap threshold, space-before-identifier call, minify-whitespace variant) and confirmed it is a copy of that proven pattern. I checked the as_identifier Infinity refactor by expanding the old and new boolean expressions; they are equivalent when IS_JSON is false and with_nesting == 0, and the new form additionally avoids wrapping Infinity in parens under IS_JSON (harmless improvement). I verified number_property_key_must_be_computed correctly forces a computed key only when NaN would print as 0 / 0 (which is not a valid non-computed property name). The with_nesting increment sits between printing the with (expr) value and the body, so the value expression is not treated as shadowed.
Other factors
Test coverage is broad and follows harness conventions (bunExe/bunEnv, tempDir, Promise.all on stdout/stderr/exited, combined-object .toEqual, test.concurrent, itBundled matrix over minify states). The cache version bump is present as REVIEW.md requires. No CODEOWNERS entry covers these paths. New commits landed today since the earlier review round; deferring rather than approving because printer-output changes affect every user file and merit a maintainer's eye even with no findings.

Reopened. I closed this one by mistake while preparing #42067: this branch had already been rebased onto main after #41909 earlier today and its CI run (build 113050) is green, so it is the one to keep, and #42067 is withdrawn as a duplicate. Two cases from #42067 that may be worth adding to the tests here, both pass on this branch's approach since it scans the symbol table: a module-level |

…ws NaN/undefined Without a bundler renamer (bun run, bun build --no-bundle, Bun.Transpiler) nothing moves a user binding named NaN or undefined aside, so a folded or synthesized value printed as the bare name was captured by it. print_ast now scans the file's symbol table once and the printer falls back to 0 / 0 and void 0 for files that declare such a binding. Inside a with statement body the bare names (Infinity included) may resolve to the object's properties on every path, so the expression forms are used there too. Bumps the runtime transpiler cache version for the output change.
It prints through print_undefined, which now emits void 0 inside a with body and in files that bind undefined, not only under minify_syntax. Also covers the NaN sibling of #7263 (export const NaN = 0 / 0) and let undefined = void 0 in the tests.

On the empty-stderr note: line 344 of transpiler.test.js is the enum template test from #41973 on main, not part of this diff. The tests this PR adds in runtime-transpiler.test.ts do check for an empty stderr, and that is deliberate. The bug they cover is a thrown ReferenceError, which lands on stderr. The child runs with bunEnv, so BUN_DEBUG_QUIET_LOGS silences debug logging, and the file passed on the x64-asan lane in build 113269. Leaving those assertions as they are.
