Hi, I think the I'm to be blamed of -no-webkit.

We did few patches that allows you to build QtWebkit with GCCE 4.4.1 thus 
allowing you to build it on Linux as well.
Those patches haven't gone to upstream (my fault) nor to Qt mainline so at the 
moment you cannot build webkit even on Windows with GCCE 4.4.1.
Even with the patches it is experimental as GCCE 4.4.1 libs is missing 
atomicity.h API and we don't have proper replacement for it. We had a hack 
patch for that but didn't really work out and well TBH since it wasn't top 
priority was pushed aside.

If you want to give it a go try applying 
http://qt.gitorious.org/+qt-s60-developers/qt/qt-s60/commit/cd18ad05e6a987cea57260cf373a0e53615bf56e.
 It will work even without proper atomics.

disclaimer: I haven't tried building webkit with GCCE for a while so there 
might be stuff that won't compile.
