polkit and gjs have both been ported upstream.
gnome-shell and cinnamon don't require any changes (maybe just a rebuild)

Couchdb, is a bit of a problem, they use an invalid JS syntax as a core feature 
of user scripts, so will be stuck with 1.8.5 until they solve
that issue.

0ad, last I heard they wanted to go straight to mozjs18 (although there won't 
be a release for this).

For the rest of the projects porting is reasonably trivial however will result 
in quite large diffs and not something that would want to carry
as distro patches.

We currently have mozjs17, gjs and gnome-shell packaged in the gnome3 ppa, 
overall this brings significant improvements in memory usage,
responsiveness and the dreaded GC deadlocks are gone!
