I updated javascript_example1.cpp so the aforementioned output is out of 
sync with the source file.  I should have copied and pasted the source. 
Please see the last thread [root_ptr]... for today's updates regarding it.

The licenses are incompatible?  I think I was relying heavily on
<boost/smart_ptr/detail/sp_counted_base.hpp> because Peter Dimov wrote a 
portable atomic reference counter.  I'm sure there is an equivalent in 
Qt but I'll need some pointers to speed things up.

But thanks again, I really appreciate.
