Wow, that's great progress! ... with a pretty long list of dependencies :) If there's too many issues with the dependencies it should be easy to scale down to the short list I mentioned earlier [9]. BTW js-1.8.5 also needs nspr-4.8.x to correctly work in multiple threads. I just ran into that today while playing with massive multi-threading in the context of the OpenCL integration.
