Looking in ./configure --help I see:

  --without-snapshot    Build without snapshotting V8 libraries. You might
                        want to set this for cross-compiling. [Default: False]

The default for *without* snapshot is *false*? So the default for *with* 
snapshot is *true*. Got it. The double negative is confusing. This should be 
made more clear, and the same format should be used to indicate what the 
default value is for all of the configure options.

Yes it builds with snapshot turned off.

What are snapshotting V8 libraries and what is the implication of enabling or 
disabling them?
