This change is great because it gets rid of a web of JS that needed to be parsed and compiled down early during startup (which is a time when we need to be very selective about how much we read off of the disk and where we lend CPU cycles). Besides this, I believe it also takes out a big consumer of js-ctypes, which is (in general) a very good thing.
