I've submitted a patch for accelerated compositing support on Windows. I hope to land it today. When I do it will require d3d9.lib to link. The feature will be turned off at first, but the build still needs to find the library. So the build-bots will need to be updated with DirectX 9.0 SDK Update (December 2004):

You'll also need to add a path to this SDK in your MSDev Include and Library paths. The WebKit build-bots have already been updated, but external ones should make the changes in preparation.
I'll br adding this info to webkit.org today.
I think it would be better to make this a runtime dependency. We can accomplish this using the macros in WebCore/platform/SoftLinking.h. Let's talk about this offline. -Adam
