 # by the compiler (no probe). This is done by modifying the default

 # Modifying these flags when launching v8 will enable the probing for
 # the specified values.

Why???

 # ----------------- available targets: --------------------
 # - "builddeps": pulls in external dependencies for building
 # - "dependencies": pulls in all external dependencies
 # - "grokdump": rebuilds heap constants lists used by grokdump
 # - any arch listed in ARCHES (see below)
 # - any mode listed in MODES
 # - every combination <arch>.<mode>, e.g. "ia32.release"
 # - "native": current host's architecture, release mode
 # - any of the above with .check appended, e.g. "ia32.release.check"
 # - "android": cross-compile for Android/ARM
 # - "nacl" : cross-compile for Native Client (ia32 and x64)
 # - default (no target specified): build all DEFAULT_ARCHES and MODES
 # - "check": build all targets and run all tests
 # - "<arch>.clean" for any <arch> in ARCHES
 # - "clean": clean all ARCHES
 
 # ----------------- internal stuff ------------------------
 
 # Architectures and modes to be compiled. Consider these to be internal
 # variables, don't override them (use the targets instead).
