[webkit-dev] Invalid file committed on the Webkit tree for windows

[Patrick Gansterer]

Since WinCairo has no working Buildbot there is no easy way to get such version. You must be able to fix small build problems on your own at the moment. Feel free to create bugs at https://bugs.webkit.org/ (with patch to fix it) if you see such problems.
