building v8 with mingw32… not yet

Building v8 with mingw32 is not quite stable yet.

In the latest revision of the trunk, you need to tweak some piece of code in platform-win32.cc for it to compile.

Then, when you do get it to compile there is a nasty bug using a get accesor inside a anonymous method, wich doesn’t crashes on other platforms/compiler.

v8-users group discussions related to this bug.

In conclusion, to avoid losing your time like I did, you should use MSVC 😉
