Hey everyone.

I'm observing this recent activity on this branch with great enthusiasm.

I've recently been trying Emacs from feature/tree-sitter with 
tree-sitter enabled, but using third-party major modes (co-developed by 
me and Theodor Thornhill). So far that has worked out OK for me.

While seeing more and more modes getting tree-sitter support main-lined 
is great, I'm having trouble just building emacs now, and all 
major-modes using tree-sitter breaks the build, complaining about 
missing shared libraries.

The command I'm using to build is:

git clean -fdx && make distclean && ./configure --with-tree-sitter ; 
make -j6

One example error (but I get these for all modes, until I revert them 
back to their initial version from git-master):

 > textmodes/mhtml-mode.el:29:2: Error: Cannot load language definition: 
"javascript", 
("/home/jostein/.emacs.d/tree-sitter/libtree-sitter-javascript: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory" 
"/home/jostein/.emacs.d/tree-sitter/libtree-sitter-javascript.so: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory" 
"libtree-sitter-javascript: cannot open shared object file: No such file 
or directory" "libtree-sitter-javascript.so: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directory")

What I don't get about that error-message is that those files have been 
built and deployed, using https://github.com/casouri/tree-sitter-module.

So what am I doing wrong? How should I build this?

Any help would be appreciated. If I can build it, I can help test-drive 
and possible also provide patches, but for now I'm stuck.
