Actually, I did it right now: I've updated the instructions and resources in <a href="https://github.com/mariospr/webkit2gtk-ARM">https://github.com/mariospr/webkit2gtk-ARM</a> to work with a Xenial chroot and also updated the comments in <a href="https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingGtk#CrossCompilingforARMdevices">https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingGtk#CrossCompilingforARMdevices</a> to stop suggesting USE_GSTREAMER_GL for now, as it's not stable enough.
@mike: If you try the whole thing again, make sure you create a Xenial based chroot AND that you re-run the bootstrap.sh script as root, since I had to add a small hack for dealing with a new _apt user that Ubuntu requires but does not get created when debootstraping for some reason.
Also, I've noticed from your logs that you're cross compiling as root, which I very much discourage you from doing so (and it's not needed anyway).
Let me know whether this helps</pre>
