After updating the control and rules files to include arm64 continues up until v8 fails to compile since it does not recognize the arm64 architecture, here's the last error, and attaching full error log.

It appears that v8 has added arm64 in newer versions of V8 per this commit: https://github.com/v8/v8-git-mirror/commit/8ef8f58bae44a9db7d7b18780ef162777ece019e

Updating the version of V8 to a newer one should fix this and I'll attempt to re-build the package with a newer version.
