I'd be OK with that. I only worked on the port because it was required
for the mozjs68 transition and evidently didn't test it enough! I asked
upstream for help testing / reviewing, but they apparently merged it
when it was broken, so that speaks to how much it's cared for there:
perhaps they would consider dropping it too.
