Yes, you're right, we put http tests at the end because now run-webkit-tests
script grab the lock of httpd before the first http test and release the lock
when exit.

Our first idea was to fix tests and make run-webkit-tests script to
be able to run multiple httpd. Fixing run-webkit-tests isn't a big
task, but test cases and expected files with hard coded localhost,
127.0.0.1, 8000, 8080, etc. port numbers. You can find how many
test cases must be refactored for this in description of
related bug: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33153

Hard coded URLs and port numbers isn't a big problem if you would
like to run only one multi-threaded (new-)run-webkit-tests script.
But it is a blocker task if you would like to run more script.
