Details
Hardcoding page sizes is fine on mainstream architectures (x86/arm), but falls short for some others. While some architectures have a fixed non-4KB page size, which just allow to #if some different values for js::gc::PageSize and related consts, some architectures, like mips, support different page sizes, which value depends on the running kernel and cpu. For these, the JS engine would need to support a non constant PageSize.

Is there a proposed fix for this? This is keeping debian packages for xulrunner from being successfully built on architectures like mipsel and ia64.

Yes, I have a patch in Bug 840242 which worked a few months ago, but several more uses of the fixed page size have cropped up since them.
