Yeah, it was removed around the time of the revision you used and the
gtk+ build got fixed (multiple times) some time after that:

  http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/37172/trunk/WebCore/platform/gtk/ScrollViewGtk.cpp

Probably best to upgrade to a newer revision, unless you have specific
reasons to stick with that one...
