I tried the same thing a while ago, and submitted patches to fix some of  
the issues, but what i was told is that there aren't really any bots  
building with --minimal, so it's not guaranteed to build.

Last i remember, after you fix those issues you mention you're probably  
gonna come up against trickier ones in --web-audio, --geolocation,  
--netscape-plugin-api and --fullscreen-api (although i haven't checked  
recently).

You can still run --minimal and enable the features that are giving you  
trouble (e.g. build-webkit --debug --minimal --javascript-debugger  
--geolocation ... etc.)

Cheers,
