Update: I was able to successfully build on current OSX a recent V8 v5.9.35 after a small patch and the following command:
export PATH=`pwd`/depot_tools:"$PATH" gclient sync cd v8 gn gen --args="is_debug=false is_component_build=false v8_use_snapshot=true v8_use_external_startup_data=false v8_static_library=true" out.gn/x64.release ninja -C out.gn/x64.release -j4 The patch can be found here: https://github.com/isegal/v8/commit/67f391fd4c0d3e5ea0add73e04fe962295c42e2d One more note (if you get mkpeephole build error): If you have MacPorts or Brew, they may have an older version of LD that would conflict with the build process. Need to either temporarily remove /opt/local/bin from the path or update LD via the following command: sudo port install ld64 +ld64_xcode Good luck!
