patch

Trying to build Qt 4.7.2 on Solaris 11 with gcc 4.5.2 fails because webkit/WebCore/WebCore.pro is adding "-Wl,--gc-sections" flag.
This is not supported by the Solaris linker.

It was mentioned a year ago at http://lists.qt.nokia.com/pipermail/qt-interest/2010-May/023701.html.
I found out the attached patch helped me to finish the build.

in webkit trunk the code is part of WebCore.pri as it was moved some time ago
