 Some features already sneaked in earlier and there were no complaints, so we 
 don't expect any problems for embedders. Toolchains don't have to be 
 brand-new, e.g. GCC 4.6/clang 3.0(?) or later are enough, for Windows we 
 require MSVS2013.

Note that we actually require GCC 4.8 just like Chromium does, so be prepared 
that support for GCC 4.6 will go away soonish.
