[Seby]

Hello Adam,
I tried to build WebKit using the latest version and I see that the "
JavaScriptCoreGenerated" without errors other than the xcopy error:
Output Window

Cannot perform a cyclic copy

 touch "E:\Build\buildfailed"

And the second one (record-memory-win) failed w/ the link usage error as
shown below:
