nodejs/node upgraded V8 to 4.4.63.30 in the 4.x branch, and to V8 4.5.x in the master branch.
mdb_v8 does not support these new V8 versions correctly:
$ node --version
v5.0.0-pre
$ node -e 'setTimeout(function foo() { process.abort(); }, 10);'
Abort (core dumped)

I have a set of changes ready that fix these issues, and so far all tests pass for 64bits and 32bits builds. I will submit a PR with these changes shortly.
It's not clear to me yet with which V8 version node 4.x LTS will ship, even though it seems likely that it'll ship with V8 4.5.x. From my tests, the fixes needed to make mdb_v8 work with V8 4.4.x are sufficient to make it work with V8 4.5.x (all tests pass).
