Chris -- argh, thanks for catching the js-config bug. I'll be cutting a new release to address that specific issue RSN.

Thanks also for your SONAME patch: that's something I don't have a lot of experience with.

Mike -- I named the library libmozjs185.so rather than libmozjs.so specifically because it doesn't work as a drop-in for any previously-released libmozjs.so (not even close -- see the release notes).

Versioning the spidermonkey library based on the JavaScript version it implements (1.8.5) doesn't make much sense to me; I prefer to think of this as version 1.0.0 of the library which implements JavaScript 1.8.5. Trying to connect solib versioning with language versioning has, at least in the past, been completely and utterly futile.

Thanks for pointing out the header bug, BTW. I agree that it should be fixed, and in fact tried to fix it in the past. Maybe now that I know my way around better I can try again.
