Hey all,

I intend to try my hand at contributing here, so I'm introducing myself in 
accordance with the directions on the "contributing to V8" page. The MSVC 
"component build" of V8 has been broken since v7.2. I will do my best to 
get it working again. I thoroughly appreciate any guidance along the way. 
Dan Elphick has been a huge help already 
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/v8-users/wjRGE98lIGY>. This is my 
first time contributing to a big project, I will do my best to work in 
accordance with the documented processes. If you're wondering why the clang 
build is not working for me, here's my linker errors 
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/v8-users/QxdXGgMsgZY>. Speaking 
from a position of a relative newbie, it looks like clang doesn't think it 
needs to export certain symbols, but MSVC expects them to be exported.

I do have a question someone might be able to help me with. If I manage to 
get this build working, would it be possible/practical/desirable to add 
this configuration to the CI build system long term? Dan did mention it's 
"not officially supported".

Any way, wish me luck.
Cheers,
Ben
