[webkit-dev] Do any ports still disable SVG?

[Philip Rogers]

We could reduce a bit of maintenance cost by removing all the defines. I
ran some numbers and I'm not sure we are there yet in terms of lost
productivity, even on the Chromium side. SVG adds around 20% to debug
compile times:

Linux, Z620, no goma, clean build, ninja, Debug DumpRenderTree, without
SVG: 4m05s
Linux, Z620, no goma, clean build, ninja, Debug DumpRenderTree, with SVG:
4m52s

Linux, Z620, no goma, clean build, ninja, Release DumpRenderTree, without
SVG: 3m58s
Linux, Z620, no goma, clean build, ninja, Release DumpRenderTree, with SVG:
4m36s

For Chromium developers not working on WebKit it is probably best to
continue building without SVG, even though I must warn you that you'll miss
out on the some sweet graphics.
