[Alexander Farber]

Hello Adam and others,

thank you, I've submitted 2 bug reports:

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53590
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53591

Then I've looked into
C:\cygwin\home\afarber\WebKit\WebKitBuild\Release\obj\*\BuildLog.htm
and have seen the following errors -

The other log files were saying:

Performing Pre-Build Event...
/usr/bin/bash
Project : error PRJ0002 : Error result 1 returned from
'C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe'.
Project : warning PRJ0018 : The following environment variables were not found:

which seems to mean they depend on some failed stuff

Alex
