A JavaScript equivalent of PHP's runkit_function_add

{% codeblock runkit/runkit_function_add.js lang:js https://raw.github.com/kvz/phpjs/master/functions/runkit/runkit_function_add.js raw on github %}
function runkit_function_add (funcname, arglist, code) {
  // http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net
  // +   original by: Brett Zamir (http://brett-zamir.me)
  // %          note 1: Function can only be added to the global context; use create_function() for an anonymous function
  // *     example 1: runkit_function_add('add', 'a, b', "return (a + b);");
  // *     returns 1: true
  if (this.window[funcname] !== undefined) { // Presumably disallows adding where exists, since there is also redefine function
    return false;
  }

  try {
    this.window[funcname] = Function.apply(null, arglist.split(',').concat(code));
  } catch (e) {
    return false;
  }
  return true;
}
