Whilst web-webkit lists js in its DEPENDS I'm not sure it's actually 
required. It's not listed in the web-webkit configure.ac

We need to figure out what we want to do with web and web-webkit before 
we spend too much time avoiding breaking them.

Currently neither is actively maintained but web-webkit still makes a 
lot of sense IMHO.

Cheers,
Joshua
