[Bug 286906]

[Colin Walters]

I think a fundamental thing here is that there's a large world between:

[API changes all the time]  -- ... -- [ stable API/ABI ]

In particular, in the middle area, there are small things that the
SpiderMonkey consuming community would greatly benefit from that don't
restrict SpiderMonkey really.  See
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618381 for an example.

Another one is build support code for an independent-of-firefox
SpiderMonkey release could be upstream, and it could have an independent
version.

So, let me lay out some tasks:

* Land some version of 618318 so that embedders can adapt more easily when API changes
* Move xulrunner/installer/mozilla-js.pc.in into js/src/
* Add a version to the libmozjs.so
* Remove the Firefox configure flag --enable-shared-js
* Add a "make dist" target that generates spidermonkey-X.tar.gz to js/src/Makefile.in
