Yes this code has a very long history. I think it was for COM IDL and then someone added support for W3C IDL for the YHC javascript compiler. I further hacked it around to get it working with the WebKit ones.

If you look on Attr.idl line 22 there is probably some attribute or something that was not in the older IDL files.
