It may be easier to patch this one, to be honest, than to reimplement V8 on a completely novel build system. This one I can take a look at in a day or two, I guess.
Or PHP would not work with static libs?

According to README, it needs at least V8-9: https://github.com/phpv8/v8js If this is accurate, existing V8-8.3 will not be of use, we will need a new port for V8-x. (Unless, of course, an earlier version is used which is compatible with V8-8.x.)

Which of the nine static libraries that the v8-8.3 port installs is equivalent to the libv8 library php-v8js is looking for?

You are looking at the README from the head of the php8 branch. But the README from the latest released version, 2.1.2, which is the one the port will be created for, says it only requires v8 6.9 or later.

from https://pecl.php.net/package/v8js/2.1.2
Release notes. Version 2.1.2 (stable)
- support PHP 7.4
- support V8 8.x
this could be a problem if there's no PHP8+ support
sorry if i'm getting in the way, I have no idea, this port making iz out of my league.
thanks for taking a look at it :D

You are correct that release 2.1.2 does not support php 8. The upcoming version 3.0.0 does, however it will also require a newer v8. Perhaps the php 8 compatibility changes can be backported to version 2.1.2. However no progress can be made on adding php-v8js to MacPorts until v8 is added to MacPorts; evidently the v8-8.3 port we have is not v8 but a fork of v8 that does not provide things in the way that v8 usually does.
