Hi,
 I have tried to build Webkit using cygwin. I have followed the
documentation and post details in the forum.
1. Installed the cygwin.
2. Installed QuickTime SDK
3. Checkout the latest webkit code from trunk (in cgywin)
4. set the ENV variable WEBKITLIBRARIESDIR & WEBKITOUTPUTDIR
5. Ran : WebKitTools/Scripts/update-webkit (succeed)
6. When try execute the WebKitTools/Scripts/update-webkit-support-libs and
WebKitTools/Scripts/update-webkit-auxiliary-libs, I am getting the following
Errors.

bash-3.2$ WebKitTools/Scripts/update-webkit-support-libs

I am getting the following different errors for each time.

Jaffar
