Build libjs from source for now until the Perl threading problem can be reliably tested

The previous commit changed JavaScript::SpiderMonkey to be built without
thread safety, but on Fedora we had been installing the js-devel package
(which was threaded). As you can't build a non-threaded
JavaScript::SpiderMonkey on top of a threaded libjs, for now we'll make
Fedora build a non-threaded libjs from source just like the other distros.

Note that the problem with threaded JavaScript::SpiderMonkey surfaced
on Debian Lenny when targeting holds. Lenny has libthreads-perl 1.71, but
a number of fixes have been committed to subsequent versions
(http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/JDHEDDEN/threads-1.82/Changes) - so
threading support might be reliable on more current distros. Once we
have a reliable test, we might be able to go back to the packaged
version of libjs.
