Crap, forgot all about that "feature". The js-root option gets the ExternC compiler to consume the JS implementation of a library where the code has function bodies and doesn't have a clean mapping from its file paths to package names and output the .js files that ExternC otherwise expects. I supposed it could be another tool broken out from ExternC or maybe we could make ExternC's normal code paths handle the situations the js-root handles. HTH, -Alex
