That is a really old version.

I was convinced that there is an older libmozjs version for m68k in Debian, but now I'm not finding any. Newer SpiderMonkey versions have Rust as a build dependency, which is also not available in Debian as a binary package (LLVM has a m68k backend though).

Maybe JavaScript is jut not meant to run on old platforms ;).
(I'm sure on day there will some nodejs compatible runtime, that also would work on m68k. Bun seems promising).
