------- Additional Comments from Holger Freyther <freyther at handhelds.org>
Substance:
  - Is GDK_WINDOWING_X11 really defined when building for Gtk+/X11? Is that due
a broken pc file?

  - Your patch is changing a lot more than advertised. Change the summary or
split it up.

  - We added cairo-ft for a specific reason, we have to figure out if that
reason is gone

   - Adding a random directory to cppflags is quite "dangerous", people with
broken packages could just do CPPFLAGS=-I/right/dir ./configure. Specially when
cross compiling we might pick up the wrong headers.

Style:
   - #define WTF_USE_BLA 1 is supposed to be used in a #if USE(BLA) way.


And I agree that plugins should/can currently only be build on Gtk+/X11.
