Dear QtWebKittens,

Yesterday evening we made the "x86-32 Linux Qt Release WebKit2" buildbot on
http://build.webkit.sed.hu/waterfall?category=core use newer Qt5 revision
(revision after Qt5 refactoring)

And then Tor Arne landed a buildfix for WebKit trunk: http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/96345

Unfortunately with newer Qt there are 10605 new failing test. It is a _very very big_ number,
approximately half of the tests. I skipped all of them not to kill the buildbot master.
(Skip tests: http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/96355)

But we should stop for a minute in this crazy developing race and make allowance for QA.
I filed a meta bug: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69104 . It would be great
if we can fix these regressions _as soon as possible_ to hit the test coverage before
Qt5 refactoring.

br,
Ossy
