This just occurred to me: our QtV8 library contains symbols in the "v8" namespace. That means applications and libraries cannot load other V8 implementations, since that would cause symbol clashes and catastrophic failures.
One solution is to rename the namespace inside our build of V8.
Another is to declare our build the official V8 build and just rename the
library to simply "v8" (libv8.so.0 on Linux).
Questions:
- how close to maintaining binary compatibility is the V8 project? Something
in the works? Or completely out of the question?
- how likely is it that our changes to V8 are going to be accepted by the
upstream?
