Hmm, I replied there, but my e-mail still hasn't posted to the mailinglist...

For example I have my webkit checked out in /home/ben/dev/webkit so I point it 
to that location.

Nope, QT_WEBKIT you simply set to 'webkit_trunk', it is a flag for qmake.  You 
could probably merge these two defines into 1, but I wasn't sure how using 
qmake.

You can check out the src/webkittrunk.pri in Arora for the exact details of 
how they are used.
