It is bad news, the plv8 upstream is very pleasant to work with.

But now building plv8 means building v8 first, which means something
like downloading and building the whole chrome toolchain. That's 30 GB
of stuff, including binary blobs from the internet.

plv8 will work for anyone willing to go through that. It's just not
feasible to support it from a packager perspective.
