Hi All!

As Maciej stated earlier today I have been working on rebasing the  
feature branch to ToT.  I am pleased to say this has now been  
completed, and the feature branched is now based on r25816

Given the age of the feature branch prior to this the merge was non- 
trivial and a number of more substantial and/or convoluted patches  
have been skipped and will need to be remerged.  Where possible the  
appropriate bugs have been reopened.

The most complex are the media element patches: r23870, r23871,  
r23872, r23873

In addition a few more recent patches did not apply cleanly enough to  
make it worth attempting to merge and will need to be redone (I've  
reopened the bugs):
   r25733 -- http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15281
   r25805 -- http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15320
   r25809 -- http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15280

In addition to these missed revisions there a reasonable amount of  
fallout from the rebase, and we should focus on correcting any layout  
test failures that have been introduced by the merge.  These can  
either be the result of incorrect merging in layout test results, or  
bug fixes that were applied to files that have been deleted and/or  
moved.

Finally, to deal with the difference in float and double usage between  
trunk and feature branch it was necessary to disable the warnings for  
implicit double to float conversion.  To match trunk we will need to  
re-enable this warning as soon as possible.

Cheers,
   Oliver
