V8 Javascript shell

Has anyone managed to compile V8 on archlinux? I tried on my main system, got the stubs-32.h problem and found out archlinux 64bit isn't multilib and couldn't build it. Then I tried in a 32bit version of arch I had already setup in virtualbox, but just get:

cc1plus: warnings being treated as errors
src/handles-inl.h: In static member function 'static void v8::V8::RemoveMessageListeners(void (*)(v8::Handle<v8::Message>, v8::Handle<v8::Value>))':

This is 3306, possibly a bad revision? I tried out a few further back, but still kept getting this same problem. I also couldn't find any info via google or the arch forums/wiki about people compiling it on arch, surly I'm not the only one?

Re: V8 Javascript shell

Isn't there a native 64-bit V8 now?  I compiled chromium a while ago on 64-bit, and didn't need any multilib.

Re: V8 Javascript shell

I just had this issue so for future reference, the correct way is to set the architecture flag to 64, i.e. "scons arch=64"
