If one cares strongly enough about such HW, there is always the option to fork M36 and create a separate platform port for non-SSE2. This would make it possible to track upstream changes to the rest, but one should not underestimate the amount of work involved to keep such a port alive (I would guess almost 1 person working full-time on it). -- -- v8-users mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "v8-users" group.
