[webkit-dev] Help needed. WebKit with Windows XP

There are several projects built before QTMovieWin and one of those is
failing. Look at the build logs for the WTF and JavaScriptCore projects as
your error indicates that JavaScriptCore isn't building properly.


Your WebCore error will likely go away once the projects before it are
actually built.


Also, as Brent alluded to earlier, you may need to remove your WebKitBuild
folder and start from scratch if the errors stem from generated files.
