Yes.  You caused a test to change behavior in an unexpected way.  That makes makes the bot turn red and is what we mean by breaking a test.

> Yes, yes, I guess rolling out without explanation is much more appropriate than just updating TestExpectations. It is also good I talked about this test with you on IRC yesterday. Thank you for your help.

The policy of this project is that you are not permitted to break other ports.  I tried to contact you on the bug and on IRC, but you weren't around.  I did the appropriate thing and reverted your patch.

If you would like to change the policy for WebCore to match the "Apple can break other ports" policy for WebKit2, that's something that needs to be discussed on webkit-dev.

I realize that I'm taking a hard line here, but I'm afraid that the WebKit2 "Apple is the only port that matters" policy will slow creep into WebCore.
