--- Comment #1 from Michael Catanzaro <mcatanzaro at gnome.org> ---
This Apache-licensed code changes the "effective license" of WebKit. I thought WebKit's license was (BSD and LGPLv2+), but surprise! it's actually (BSD and LPGLv2+ and Apache). Notably, it means GPLv2-only applications cannot depend on WebKit (although, fortunately, I doubt any such applications exist).

We need to get the license right. This means either removing this code or else updating https://webkit.org/licensing-webkit/
