[webkit-qt] Building QTWebkit 2.3.2 on mac osx - is it possible?

[Seth Call]

Hey there,

I'm currently trying to get QTwebkit 2.3.2 to build on Mac OSX (10.8.4).
I'm using the staging branch, as suggested by Allan in the blog.

I have tried a number of permutations on the build arguments for the
Tools/Scripts/build-webkit with no success.  Let me share my most recent
attempts:

./Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --qt -prefix=${QTDIR}  --makeargs="-j1" -spec
unsupported/macx-clang --no-webkit2  --qmakearg='CONFIG+=production_build'
--release

Then eventually I get a compilation error:

../Source/WebCore/platform/mac/WebVideoFullscreenController.mm:514:39:
error: cannot initialize a parameter of type
      'id<NSAnimationDelegate>' with an lvalue of type
'WebVideoFullscreenWindow *'
    [_fullscreenAnimation setDelegate:self];
                                      ^~~~

Not knowing anything about this code or how to fix it, I simply tried
adding --no-video (which is OK for my webkit needs).  However, adding
--no-video results in this particular error:

Xcode 4.6.3
Build version 4H1503


So... in closing--does anyone have a way to build 2.3.2 on mac?  Is there
something obviously wrong or missing from the options I'm passing to
build-webkit?

Thanks so much for any help,
Seth
