I forget exactly, if it's a DOM thing, defined in most modern browsers, 
or if it's redefined in the DynAPI.  Do a recursive search for 
"addChild" in all *.js files, and look specifically at the results that 
create something.  Most likely of the form "p.addChild = function...".

./src/api/event.js:126:p.addChild = function(c,alias,inlineID) {
./src/gui/highlighter.js:17:p.addChild=dynapi.functions.Null;
./src/gui/templmngr.js:103:p.addChild = function(c,fld){

The last two are most likely redefined versions, slightly tweaked for 
use in that particular widget.  The first, in event.js, might be where 
it comes from.
