------- Comment #1 from alp at nuanti.com  2008-06-07 06:57 PDT -------
Agreed. We'll need to figure out how to export the JSCore internals used by
WebCore, since everything but the C public API is currently hidden.

We might be able to do this by:

1) Making everything in JSCore exported and public (not great, but guaranteed
to work)

2) Using the defs file used by Apple (could be problematic since our builds are
different to theirs, and the C++ mangling may be different in the
compilers/compiler versions we support)

3) Convincing libtool or something else in the build system to generate a defs
file at build time.

4) Maintaining our own defs files (has some of the same issues as (2) and is a
pain for us to maintain.

I expect (1) or (3) to be easiest to implement. Need to experiment and see what
works.
