About mozjs24 being built

Thanks!

I've also noticed, after successfully installing `gjs`, that it doesn't
work anyway.

```
gjs -c 'imports.gi.Gtk.init(null);'

(gjs 999): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
```

This one also works on homebrew (I'm trying to test Gtk+ configuration
through both installers)

Any idea how to test gjs via macports? Am I missing something?

Thanks!
