Definitely b)
the failing tests are not failures of the javascript interpreter, but of
the compiled cc tests against v8 api : that might be bugs in the tests
themselves or bugs in experimental areas of the api.
Having them pass would have been the icing on the cake, but since it's
very uncommon they do on all archs, because upstream use those tests internaly
and doesn't really care to maintain them in a clean state, i'm going to enable
only the javascript tests (because only them matter anyway).
