This was SVN commit r21759.
This used to build so the include of CStr.h disappeared from the include
chain at some point. PCH builds kept working because this file is
included in precompiled.h for the engine project.

This was SVN commit r21075.
Using references matches the C++ coding style better and should improve
performance a bit in theory. It avoids 2 copies of T in case of the
functions registered with RegisterFunction (mainy used in the GUI). It
should also avoid one or two copies in case of
DEFINE_INTERFACE_METHOD_X, which is used in the simulation, but I
haven't bothered to count it there exactly.
It is now predefined which types have to be passed by const reference
and which are passed by value. Note that references can't be used as
out-parameters (to return multiple values to JS). This hasn't worked
before either and probably never will.
This was SVN commit r17696.
This upgrade also introduces exact stack rooting (see to the wiki:
JSRootingGuide) and fixes problems with moving GC. This allows us to
enable generational garbage collection (GGC).
Measurements a few months ago have shown a performance improvement of a
non-visual replay of around 13.5%. This probably varies quite a bit, but
it should be somewhere between 5-20%. Memory usage has also been
improved. Check the forum thread for details.
Thanks to everyone from the team who helped with this directly or
indirectly (review, finding and fixing issues, the required C++11
upgrade, the new autobuilder etc.)! Also thanks to the SpiderMonkey
developers who helped on the #jsapi channel or elsewhere!
