The answer is: don't hard code passwords.
One workaround is to encrypt the password into a file, then decrypt it at runtime. With a 600 permission the encrypted file is not a complete sitting duck for users on your system to play with. This also has some security issues, but is a lot better than just putting a password into a C source file. The best solution is to get the password interactively at run time.

IJS-CONFIG(1) General Commands Manual IJS-CONFIG(1)
NAME
ijs-config - script to get information about the installed version of ijs
SYNOPSIS
ijs-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--libs] [--cflags]
DESCRIPTION
ijs-config is a program that is used to determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs that use
IJS.
OPTIONS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included
below.
--help Show summary of options. This may list additional advanced package configuration options not detailed in this manual page.
--version
Show installed libijs version.
--libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link an IJS program.
--cflags
Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile an IJS program.
--prefix=PREFIX
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that IJS was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and
--libs options. This option is also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. This option must be specified
before any --libs or --cflags options.
--exec-prefix=PREFIX
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation exec prefix that IJS was built with when computing the output for the --cflags
and --libs options. This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options.
