I vaguely remember some javascript code somewhere deleting
Object.prototype.toJSON() or something

A quick search found
https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/blob/e41aeaacf434b9ff93c8848f8eddbfcbb27ed462/war/src/main/js/util/jenkins.js#L20-L54
In theory that makes JSON.stringify work again, but would make the other
prototype js fail, so would have to be done temporarily.
