Looking at the patch that was added in -4: WTF?  It changes the library
ABI, but you didn't bump the soname.  Of course that breaks clients!

libmozjs185 appears to have been broken in the same way.

At this point in the release cycle no more library transitions are
allowed, so libmozjs has to be fixed with a kluge like the patch that
Zheng Xu sent, not the upstream change.

Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.
