We usually get these on aarch64. Maybe we should apply the
workaround unconditionally. Try changing this line:

#if V8_OS_NETBSD && V8_TARGET_ARCH_ARM64
to
#if V8_OS_NETBSD

In these files:
nodejs/patches/patch-deps_v8_src_base_platform_platform-posix.cc
nodejs/patches/patch-deps_v8_src_heap_code-range.cc

Report back if it helps.
