I've looked at the bug.  Based on the last few comments there, maybe you 
have now fixed this?

Anyway, from the log that you attached, it looks like much stuff in JSValue.h 
is conditional depending on #if USE(JSVALUE32_64). It seems to be 
compiling the 32-bit version.  Certainly -fpermissive won't work.  It 
should be using JSVALUE64. The code that detects the architecture 
and defines JSValue* is in wtf/Platform.h.
