3+
* Update upstream v8 version to 6.7.288.46 (https://github.com/cowboyd/libv8/pull/258)
4+
Due to the change in V8's build system this causes several major changes until
5+
we're able to find a way to reimplement the necessary functionality. The changes
6+
are listed below.
7+
* Remove the option to specify --with-cxx. For now V8 is built with the
8+
toolchain provided by the build system (https://github.com/cowboyd/libv8/issues/260)
9+
* Remove the option to specify --with-system-v8. It was making it too easy for
10+
the user to shot themself in the foot.
11+
* Drop ARM support. The V8 build system is not working natively on ARM and for
12+
some reason crosscompilation produces X86 binaries
13+
(https://github.com/cowboyd/libv8/issues/261)
14+
* Drop FreeBSD support. Chromium's depot_tools do not support FreeBSD at this
15+
point. (https://github.com/cowboyd/libv8/issues/253)
