Current trunk builds with V8 if you're using Qt 5 and disable WebKit2 (modulo 
one tiny patch in the v8 bindings due to a V8 API difference).

I'm not aware of any other combination that works.

If you (or anyone else) would like to make Qt 5's QtV8 library a standalone 
module that compiles & works with Qt 4, then it would be easy to add Qt 4
to the mix in WebKit/V8. It would be most welcome :)
