global_function.js - variables needs to be vars about js-function-context-this

@raq929 says: this used to be run without webpack, and now it is. That may be the cause of the issue.

Not likely.

That seems like an appropriate fix, but not the right solution, if that makes sense.

To put it another way, if that's an actual fix, then the example should be reworked to use let and const appropriately.

Agreed. (This issue is weird because we were figuring it out in real time.)
So, basically, this example needs to be reworked. It was not a webpack issue, it was an updating to ES6 issue. And now the expected results in the file are not the actual results.

We have now updated all examples to ES6, so this is out of date.
