Robin,

Thank's for the answer. But does Couchdb support AMD modules? I only found CommonJS info ( 
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/CommonJS_Modules).

However using patched Handlebars with 'require('lib/handlebars')' or 'require(['lib/handlebars'], function(module) { 
...})' failed. The former with 'define is not defined' error, the latter with 'name.split is not a function' error.
