I don't believe this is correct - please take a look at this test case:
     http://fnd.lewcid.org/tmp/alias_scope.html

It boils down to the following:
---------------
var $ = "lorem ipsum";
var foo;

(function($) {

foo = function() {
     console.log(typeof $); // prints "function", referencing jQuery
};

// hijack
foo_orig = foo;
foo = function() {
     foo_orig.apply(this, arguments);
     console.log(typeof $); // prints "string", referencing custom $
};

foo(); // prints both "function" and "string"
---------------

Am I missing something?
