Instead of closing the name space here and then using explicit name spaces on
the definitions below you can just close it at the end.

Done.  Originally I was expecting to have to #include other files, like
atomicops.

+
+
+#if defined(__GNUC__)
+
+inline int v8::internal::IntegerLog2(uint32_t value) {
+  return 31 - __builtin_clz(value);
+}
+
+#elif defined(_MSC_VER)
+
+#pragma intrinsic(_BitScanReverse)
+
+inline int v8::internal::IntegerLog2(uint32_t value) {
+  unsigned long result;
+  _BitScanReverse(&result, value);
+  return result;
+}
+
+#else
+
+// Default version using regular operations. Code taken from:
+// http://graphics.stanford.edu/~seander/bithacks.html#IntegerLog
+inline int v8::internal::IntegerLog2(uint32_t value) {
+  int result, shift;
+  shift = (value > 0xFFFF) << 4;  value >>= shift;   result = shift;

This code won't pass presubmit.py.  See
http://code.google.com/p/v8/wiki/Contributing
Also, we don't normally allow booleans to be used in a numeric way.  Please
replace with ?:

+  shift = (value > 0xFF) << 3;    value >>= shift;   result |= shift;
+  shift = (value > 0xF) << 2;     value >>= shift;   result |= shift;
+  shift = (value > 0x3) << 1;     value >>= shift;   result |= shift;
+  result |= (value >> 1);
+  return result;
+}
+#endif
