Unable to check for sanity:

> package masked: dev-lang/spidermonkey-17.0.0-r5, by keywords: -hppa
Comment 3 Felix Janda 2020-07-07 01:18:21 UTC 
Does hppa have any interest in revisiting Bug 504124 . If not, www-client/elinks will drop hppa keyword.
Comment 4 Thomas Deutschmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-07-09 16:55:50 UTC 
Why are you requesting such an old version? This version should go away soon... doesn't package work with 68.x?
Comment 5 NATTkA bot gentoo-dev 2020-07-09 17:24:35 UTC 
All sanity-check issues have been resolved
Comment 6 Felix Janda 2020-07-10 00:45:10 UTC 
The configure script of www-client/elinks-0.13.3 looks for mozjs-17.0 with pkg-config.

From what I understand, they do not use a newer version because 17.0.0 is the last version with a C API (as opposed to a C++ API).
