Restoring console.log()

Question

For some reason, the prototype framework (or another JavaScript code) that is shipped with Magento is replacing standard console functions, so I can't debug anything. Writing down in JavaScript console console I get the following output:

> console
Object
assert: function () {}
count: function () {}
debug: function () {}
dir: function () {}
dirxml: function () {}
error: function () {}
group: function () {}
groupEnd: function () {}
info: function () {}
log: function () {}
profile: function () {}
profileEnd: function () {}
time: function () {}
timeEnd: function () {}
trace: function () {}
warn: function () {}

I'm using Google Chrome version 13.0.782.112 on Linux.

Prototype JavaScript framework, version 1.6.0.3

Is there a quick way to solve this?

For example,

delete console.log

would also restore console.log:

console.log = null;
console.log;         // null

delete console.log;
console.log;         // function log() { [native code] }
