I created a public repository to work on JS packaging so that the process is more visible, and so that it's easier for embedders to assist in the process (or even just track it):

The scripts are pulled from http://people.ubuntu.com/~ricotz/mozjs/ via Comment 28 with some fixes and selective rebased changesets from Bug 839727.

Current items of action include a broken 'make install' and lack of NSPR for --enable-threadsafe.

We will also need to resolve naming, because this release will not be API-compatible with 1.8.5, so calling it 1.8.8 is improper. Perhaps "1.9.0", with "/usr/include/js1.9" ala Python to permit multiple incompatible versions to coexist on a single distribution?
