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

Don't try to build that way. The easiest way to ensure a proper build is to
use the build-webkit script in WebKitTools/Scripts (see
http://webkit.org/building/build.html for more info on the topic). You could
also set the two environment variables mentioned at
http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/wiki/BuildingOnWindows and open the
WebKit/win/WebKit.vcproj/WebKit.sln file to build from the GUI.
Once you've got a good build, you can always rebuild individual projects,
but building via the script or the GUI is *MUCH* saner.
