It's harder to keep Chromium building that other ports, because it uses a
substantially different configuration than the default WebKit configuration,
and much of it is not in the WebKit repository.

It also hasn't been a priority for me because Chromium developers have told me
not to make it a priority -- the implication being that we shouldn't have to
slow down mainline development of WebKit to support v8. Please let me know if
your position on this has changed.

I'm not terribly familiar with the version of the Chromium port that uses v8,
but here are some suggestions for how you could move forward:

- Change your version of WebCore to use the v8 date parser instead of the
JavaScriptCore date parser.

- Build just enough of JavaScriptCore into your port so that you can use the
JavaScriptCore date parser.

- Build a separate date parser for HTTP, and have WebCore use that instead.
(This is the best solution, but also the most time-consuming.)

Which of these solutions sounds best to you?
