[webkit-dev] Maybe bug in RenderTheme.h

[Timothy Hatcher]

I believe Apple's GCC is a branch that is occasionally synced up with  
the the main line. So this might be fixed in the Linux release but  
not in the Mac release until there is another sync up or Apple fixes  
it specifically. Using stock GCC is not an option (for the Mac) since  
we need support for Apple's Objective-C and other Mac specific GCC  
features/quarks. You might run into many slight differences, some  
intentional and some not-so-much.
