Hi Nicolas,

This change only affects running the jit-test test suite as part of "make 
check". This doesn't affect building or running the JS shell.

The mach command that has been added replicates how this particular test suite 
was previously run in "make check". It could be expanded, of course.

Thanks,

Dan

"mach jittest" ?

Is there any documentation which explain how to only work with the JS Shell 
by using mach commands?  Does this change implies that every JS developer 
will have to compile the full browser just to work on the Shell?

The only documentation I know [1] explains how to run a configure && make.
