Nitro = SquirrelFish, Nitro Extreme = SquirrelFish Extreme.

CMIIW but unfortunately, at least for the Qt port, there is no way to
detect Extreme vs non Extreme at run-time. At compile-time it is
fairly easy. If you check JavaScriptCore/wtf/Platform.h around line
744, a bunch of #ifdefs there show the platform/compiler combination
that allows enabling of JIT (i.e. the "Extreme" flavor), e.g. Windows
on x86 using MSVC. Thus, the solution is to check for the compiler
define ENABLE_JIT.

HTH.
