SpiderCaml is alive and well - I submitted patches (which are in SVN) to Alain a few months ago for 0.2 but I don't think he's time to wrap it all into another release. I haven't tested against Mozilla's latest offering but I have it working very nicely with SpiderMonkey 1.7.0 on Windows 7. It's only because compiling MinGW builds of SpiderMonkey is non-trivial that I haven't tried it against the a 1.8 engine - on Linux (or possibly using the MSVC Windows branch) I expect it would be easy to do.
