 Ninety-six man-hours of work - impressive!   (And I like/approve of the
 way that the goals included *removing* a large amount of code)

Er! Being PC, Harriet, shouldn't that be person hours???

Yours, very tongue in cheek...!!!

Indeed.

Until and unless we can get libmozjs ported to RISC OS, it'll be jsoff there
all the time :-(

I got 1.8 and 1.7 to build for RISC OS. The javascript shell runs ok but 
!NetSurf crashes as soon as it hits some javascript. That's as far as I
got.

Sounds like the problem I was getting, which this patch fixes:
http://git.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/patch/?id=24c43ea6a210cd1b98e911d989de400ef343e7bb

NetSurf won't build with 1.70 (yet), and me and Ole can't get 1.80 to
work on big-endian hosts, but if that is an endian problem it's not
going to be relevant for RISC OS/ARM.  Beyond 1.80 you're into C++ and
NSPR territory, whch adds porting complexity and increasingly bloaty
executables.

Sadly, this doesn't provide enough information to hasten the addition of
libmozjs to our SDK or to help us diagnose the issues you're
experiencing.

We're targetting 1.8.5 I'm afraid.

We've gotten NSPR building but we're stuck at sorting out mozjs because it gets
confused between the host and the target NSPR installs.

Is that with or without the jit? I got 1.8.5 to build with the jit turned
on but the javascript shell doesn't run.  I couldn't work out how to get it
to build with the jit turned off.
