I was searching in Sublime, under the Source/WebKit directory, updating wtf includes, when I ran into this.  I ended up having to search only in src/ and tests/ instead.

When I use grep, I generally just grep Source.  I don't normally have the turducken in my checkout, as I'm normally building AppleMac, but today I was fixing wtf includes for Chromium for the upcoming WTF move.
