Hello, I was closely collaborating with v8 mips team to make libv8 debian patch. What I have heard is that they are planning to upstream patches for big-endian to google trunk for future versions, but it will not be so soon.
Until then, the mips support for v8 big-endian is on a separate branch of the github repo for v8 mips port. The review for big-endian patch is done internally inside mips v8 team.

Do you have any info to add about the upstreaming status of this? I see you are in good relation with libv8 upstream, so I presume you already submitted a pull-request. Is the review already ongoing/done somewhere? Or is it a backport for something already landed?
