Bug#1000598: Fail to build with lto

[Sebastien Bacher]

Package: webkit2gtk
Version: 2.34.2-1
Severity: minor

Dear maintainers,

Webkitgtk fails to build with lto, that's not a problem for Debian at 
the moment but we carry a delta in Ubuntu where LTO is enabled by 
default. The option shouldn't be an issue for Debian and allows us to 
lower the delta and might be useful for Debian as well at some point.


Thanks for considering the attached patch,

Sebastien Bacher
