Description Pyro 2007-12-20 20:56:51 PST 
every-time I open webkit, it almost immediately crashes. I have tried my on build, but to a build error.
I have made sure my software. I am on an iBook G3 (Dual USB) 14' with 256MB of RAM and a 900mhz processor.

The first build in which this is broken is r27031, which is the first super-fat (10.4 + 10.5) nightly build.  I must have broken something in my build scripts.

And the cause is:

$ otool -arch ppc -hV "WebKitLibraries/libWebKitSystemInterfaceTiger.a(cuEnc64.o)"
WebKitLibraries/libWebKitSystemInterfaceTiger.a(cuEnc64.o):
Mach header
      magic cputype cpusubtype  caps    filetype ncmds sizeofcmds      flags
   MH_MAGIC     PPC    ppc7400  0x00      OBJECT     3       1248 SUBSECTIONS_VIA_SYMBOLS

The copy of libWebKitSystemInterfaceTiger.a in SVN is not very Tiger-friendly.
