--- Comment #24 from Keith Rollin <krollin at apple.com> ---
It's not apparent to me what these changes are for or why they're being made. It will probably not be apparent to future generations, either, so good explanatory comments (or directions to documentation) seem necessary.

For instance, the description of this bug is merely "No rule to make target `installsrc'". OK, so you added such a target. I can follow that much. But why are you updating the "clean" target? My first guess would be that it would clean up whatever was done by "installsrc". But your change to "clean" effectively stubs it out under certain conditions. So it can't be the case that "clean" is cleaning up after "installsrc". So what's the intent here?

And those "certain conditions" seem to involve building the WebKit project. What effect does your change have on the current process of building WebKit?
