I'd rather not introduce another root.

An option would be to introduce a webkitgtk-building-dependencies metamodule and have that referenced in WEBKIT_EXTRA_MODULES when necessary (i.e. in the builders). While this slightly increases the complexity it keeps the solution inside the jhbuild bounds.

Another option is to switch the builders to a more up-to-date distribution (unlike the Debian unstable) and recommend that as a sort of a developer platform, though I'm not sure only the builders are affected in this case.
