Very nice! I was considering investigating whether to switch mongodb from spidermonkey to v8; now that we have a v8 port I can look into that.

I was under the impression that the reason the nodejs ports don't support PowerPC is because v8 doesn't support PowerPC. (The comment in the nodejs port reads "# V8 only supports ARM and IA-32 processors".) If that's so, then the v8 port should similarly declare supported_archs i386 x86_64.
