Hello!

I was wondering whether it would be possible to build a jitless V8 on 
unsupported architectures such as sparc64. I have seen that V8 generally 
supports a jitless interpretor-only mode [1] but it's not clear to me 
whether it would also support unsupported architectures, i.e. those for 
which exists no native codegen backend.

Background is that the nodejs in Debian is not available on a number of 
less common architectures such as alpha, hppa, powerpc32 and sparc64 etc 
[2] despite machines being fast enough to run an interpreter.

Does anyone know whether building a jitless V8 on an unsupported 
architecture would generally work or does the jitless code still require 
the codegen backends?

Thanks,
Adrian
