Ben Noordhuis e020aae394 [wasm] Work around glibc thread-local storage bug
glibc before 2.17 has a bug that makes it impossible to execute binaries
that have single-byte thread-local variables:

    % node --version
    node: error while loading shared libraries: cannot allocate memory
    in static TLS block

Work around that by making the one instance in the V8 code base an int.

Getting the Code

Checkout depot tools, and run

    fetch v8

This will checkout V8 into the directory v8 and fetch all of its dependencies. To stay up to date, run

    git pull origin
    gclient sync

For fetching all branches, add the following into your remote configuration in .git/config:

    fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/remotes/branch-heads/*
    fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
