Hi, 
Just tried getting V8 to build on windows (visual studio 2012) as per https://code.google.com/p/v8/wiki/BuildingWithGYP and saw the following error trying to generate the solution

C:\gitrepos\v8>third_party\python_26\python.exe build\gyp_v8
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "build\gyp_v8", line 47, in <module>
    import utils
ImportError: No module named utils

digging into it, it looked like it was trying to import a utils.py from the top level tools folder, but utils.py isn't there.   I got past this by copying a utils.py from the souce of  build of NodeJs (from it's ...\v8\tools folder) build I had and that was enough to get me over this, but it looks like it's broken "out of the box" as it were.

Cheers,
Nigel

Hi Nigel!

That was a temporary breakage with the particular revision you checked out. As soon as you update to r14392 or later the problem should disappear.

Best regards,
Michael

Heh thanks - I was unlucky, I only checked it out this morning - about
an hour before the fix.
