That would be very nice!

@jperkin This is phenomenal. Assigning @AtnNn for a final decision. @mglukhovsky Is this fine? > I have no real interest in retaining copyright and signing the CLA, so you can...

Thanks for the bump @tlvenn. I think we had some issues getting the VM set up the last time we tried. We should pick this up again soon. However note...

Thanks @bcantrill, that's very helpful. I'll email you shortly.

@tlvenn Sorry for the delayed reply, I was out of office for the past week. We don't have any updates on the testing yet, but I'll try to follow up...

I merged current `next` with this in branch `daniel_jperkin_smartos_4309`. Will try to test it asap.

There's currently a compilation issue with V8. Looking into work-arounds...

I'm at a bit of a loss here. The final linking step for V8 fails as follows: ``` g++ -pthread -o /root/rethinkdb/build/external/v8_3.30.33.16-patched/build/out/x64.release/mksnapshot -Wl,--start-group /root/rethinkdb/build/external/v8_3.30.33.16-patched/build/out/x64.release/obj.host/mksnapshot/src/mksnapshot.o /root/rethinkdb/build/external/v8_3.30.33.16-patched/build/out/x64.release/obj.host/tools/gyp/libv8_base.a /root/rethinkdb/build/external/v8_3.30.33.16-patched/build/out/x64.release/obj.host/tools/gyp/libv8_nosnapshot.a /root/rethinkdb/build/external/v8_3.30.33.16-patched/build/out/x64.release/obj.host/tools/gyp/libv8_libplatform.a /root/rethinkdb/build/external/v8_3.30.33.16-patched/build/out/x64.release/obj.host/third_party/icu/libicui18n.a /root/rethinkdb/build/external/v8_3.30.33.16-patched/build/out/x64.release/obj.host/third_party/icu/libicuuc.a /root/rethinkdb/build/external/v8_3.30.33.16-patched/build/out/x64.release/obj.host/tools/gyp/libv8_libbase.a...

An interesting thing is that `file` just identifies it as `data`, while on my Linux system it says `current at archive` for a similar file. Maybe the magic for this...
