I have done some work on this (a while back) which I hopefully 
remembered to push to our shared git.  I worked on new branches, as I 
found that best approach is to keep uglifyjs around and release the new 
version as uglifyjs2: It seems from upstream notes that v1 will be 
maintained for some time as a more conservative fallback.

uglifyjs2 has some new dependencies that need packaging.  I am writing 
this while offline and don't recall which exactly.

So if someone feel like helping move forward the inclusion of uglifyjs2, 
I suggest look at its dependencies and try package some of the missing 
ones... - or look at my draft packaging and yell if you disagree with 
some of it :-)
