That's useful, thanks. It looks like checking-in pre-built 32-bit artifacts 
is the way to go.

Is it possible to just run mksnapshot? Maybe we can just tell ninja to 
build `obj/v8/v8_snapshot/embedded.o`
Full-Chromium requires a 64-bit build environment 
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/linux/build_instructions.md

Alternatively, are there any pre-built artifacts we can just download? This 
would be ideal, as we wouldn't have to check in large files to Buildroot.
