It would be great if someone took this on, even if you just worked out a few flaky tests and then passed it off to someone else. Also, another bug that someone could take on that doesn't require significant programming knowledge is to make the webkit tests runnable on Vista. It's a lot easier to get a quad-core Vista machine than an XP one here, so we can run the tests a ton faster on Vista. This is http://crbug.com/6131. This also would help all the people who currently build on Vista and need to run the tests on XP.
