Ever since V8's "ia32" port (for 32-bit x86 platforms) has started
requiring SSE2 instruction support in 2014, there has been an "x87" port to
allow V8 to continue to run on x86 hardware that does not support SSE2
instructions.

Due to a lack of stakeholders in the "x87" port, and the ongoing
maintenance burden it creates for the team, we are planning to drop it from
the V8 repository. (Note that the "ia32" port is unaffected and will
continue to be actively developed.)

If you have any concerns about this deprecation, please speak up now.
Otherwise the removal will happen in two weeks.
