I'm speechless... What's the point of writing code in an arch-independent language, when you *still* end up with arch-dependency due to an unportable runtime? I wonder if wouldn't be possible to ship all NodeJS modules required for building Firefox with the source code and run the build process in Firefox's own JS runtime.
