[Pkg-javascript-devel] not failing package build on libv8 and nodejs tests

Hi,
currently libv8 and nodejs run their regression test suites
when building package.
They are quite useful to the maintainer, allowing to detect
and fix bugs before release, as well as having useful logs on
other architectures (that is, armel).
However, not building the package because there is one regression
is frustrating, and does not allow further tests :
* upstream v8 does not always backports fixes when it comes to ARM,
* upstream nodejs release some failing tests on purpose

That's why i'm going to let the tests succeed even if one of them is
failing, at least in this early release cycle.

Jérémy.
