spidernode is a fork of Node v0.4, which technically makes it packageable
because 0.4 didn't have the bundled library issues that 0.6+ does.

Unfortunately, that also makes it unsuitable for most Node users, as the whole
world has pretty much moved on to 0.6.  There are lots of libraries that only
support 0.6, and it would also require a very old npm.  There are also a lot of
native (C++) modules that would be incompatible because they rely on V8 in some
way or another.

Besides, V8 isn't the issue.  Upstream supports using a shared libv8 just fine.
(In fact, I patched it upstream so it didn't regress to not doing so in the
next version.  ;-)
