[webkit-dev] Regarding problem in building webkit2

[Adrien Destugues]

Hi,

The Haiku ports uses its own implementation of HTTP, relying on the
libraries provided in Haiku for that. We will probably not be switching
back to curl.

However, we have used only WebKitLegacy so far so it is expected that
some parts of our network backend will be missing (everything that was
not used by WebKitLegacy).

Should I use the function defined under them or should I write it to be haiku specific(platform specific) if so what should be the contents of it. Thank you!
