[webkit-dev] Yet another bug-less change hosed the tree.

[Eric Seidel]

Correct.  Bill is not the blocker on the
fix-the-author-to-be-not-eric at webkit.org-in-postcommit-patch.  The
blocker how fast I'm able to pop items off my work queue.  I'm happy
to hand this item to someone else.  Bill will have to be involved in
the end.

The plan was detailed here:
https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2010-April/012350.html

I just filed https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38870
If anyone would like to lead that to completion, I'm happy to pass it off.
