Comment #1 on issue 2973 by [email protected]: V8 will not build on Windows7 x64 due to Python errors.
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=2973

After further research (i.e. looking in the Makefile) it appears that the Wiki (BuildingWithGYP) needs editing.

The beginning section (that discusses dependencies):

Otherwise (e.g. on Windows), you need to get GYP manually. From the root of your V8 checkout, run:

svn co http://gyp.googlecode.com/svn/trunk build/gyp
svn co https://src.chromium.org/chrome/trunk/deps/third_party/icu46 third_party/icu

Should be updated so that revision 1685 of gyp is specified:

svn co http://gyp.googlecode.com/svn/trunk build/gyp --revision 1685

After making this change to my build process everything seemed to succeed and this makes sense because the "dependencies" target of the Makefile explicitly includes "--revision 1685" as well.

Anyone want to update the Wiki article?
