Comment #32 on issue 1312 by [email protected]: It's time to get iOS supported!
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=1312

@#31: The V8 ARM simulator simulates ARM instructions on x86, so I don't think it's applicable to the scenario (we want to run V8 on iOS devices). One can actually compile V8 on ARM, but it's irrelevant as a major problem is that Apple won't allow JIT in apps. I may be incorrect, but it seems the value of V8-iOS is that it stands some chance of getting around this constraint.

Why go through the hassle when one can just embed JavaScriptCore? JSC is under LGPL which, under certain readings, seems to be incompatible w/ the AppStore. V8 OTOH is under BSD-New and therefore has no such encumbrances.
