function resolve(){...}

"resolve" is now in scope for the current block

var resolve = function resolve(){...}

This form is redundant. For a slight variation:

var resolve = function foo(){...}

"resolve" is now in scope for the current block.

"foo" is in scope for the RHS function.

both names refer to the same function.
