Hi Paul, I have seen you committed something to this effect since yesterday.
Is it safe to port it to the head, or should I wait a bit more?

Cool, I didn't realize that option made such a difference. Since, as you say 
it is currently needed when kjs is dynamically loaded, it should be added for 
that case only. I'll change the configure.in.in script in head to only enable 
it in that case, for now.
