[webkit-dev] FTL merge (and subsequent mayhem)

[Oliver Hunt]

(I meant to send this last night, so many apologies for the delay)

Last night I merged over the FTL branch to trunk, currently the FTL itself is 
guarded by ENABLE_FTL_JIT and HAVE_LLVM guards, however the branch does bring 
in a lot of general improvements to JSC's existing execution engines.

Unfortunately this has hosed all the non-Mac builds, and my initial attempt to 
fix the CMake based build systems had so little effect that I felt I needed 
assistance from engineers on those specific platforms, unfortunately none were 
around by the time I headed to bed.

I would like to apologise to the maintainers of those platforms that I 
destroyed, and offer my heart felt thanks to those who have already started 
getting the builds running.  I will be available all day today if help is 
needed, but to my knowledge this should primarily require updating project 
files *crosses fingers*.

Thank you for the apology, though to my knowledge you didn't destroy any 
platforms, you only broke them ;)

I can fully understand that it might be hard or impossible to fix all build 
systems and configurations when merging big changes like that, but a warning 
on the mailing list that it would happen tonight would probably have made the 
situation go smoother.
