A JavaScript equivalent of PHP's runkit_import

{% codeblock runkit/runkit_import.js lang:js https://raw.github.com/kvz/phpjs/master/functions/runkit/runkit_import.js raw on github %}
function runkit_import (file, flags) {
  // http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net
  // +   original by: Brett Zamir (http://brett-zamir.me)
  // -    depends on: file_get_contents
  // %        note 1: does not return an associative array as in PHP and will evaluate all variables, not only those in a function or class
  // %        note 2: Implement instead with include?
  // *     example 1: runkit_import('http://example.com/somefile.js');
  // *     returns 1: undefined
