Thanx Jochen. That's what I suspected. It won't be difficult to fix within a standard g++ build, for the moment, but I am concerned for the future.
I can understand the choice to create a custom build system for a very large project like Chromium, but not for something as relatively simple as V8. I have no intention of building any version of the full browser and I doubt that many in this group will, either. In 40+ years of professional software development I have had to learn many different build systems (and even more programming languages) and I really don't want to waste my efforts delving into the fine details of another. Especially since I would only be using it for one project. All we really need are easily constructed, static and shared libraries (and, if possible, a little better documentation) . . . Nevertheless, thanks for all your work here. It really is greatly appreciated . . .
