Correction: there is no urgency for Chrome. There _are_ hundreds of
projects out there based on v8 other than Chrome, and none of them can plan
for fixing their code which are broken by this series of changes.

The callback signature changes alone break almost every single line of
v8-using code i've written (tens of thousands of them), and i am still
undecided as to whether to spend several weeks of my time patching for or
whether to simply drop by v8-related projects (i'm leaning strongly towards
the latter). i'm getting too old to spend weeks patching every time a
3rd-party library pulls the rug out from under me (and this isn't the first
time v8 has done it, though this is certainly the most invasive change so
far).
