Dear Maintainer,

I'm not sure the fix, setting that = 0 is the best option.

nodejs themselves manually patched their bundeled version of v8 specifically for this bug, see:

https://github.com/nodejs/node/commits/v0.10.38-release/deps/v8/include/v8.h

which points to:

https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/881ac26f27f4ac9585d66c8d8a67d5b246a23d1b#diff-42f385dff7890b3c213d9699bcc350cc

We should probably import this, instead of the current "fix".
