Patch

This patch will make it possible to build GTK/EFL in same repository.

[Csaba Osztrogonác]

It is so annoying when jhbuild clobbers the WebKitBuild/Dependencies 
when I try to build EFL after GTK and vice-versa.

I like the idea to use different build directory for dependecies of EFL and GTK.
The proposed patch looks good to me (and I tested too, it seems all scripts work), but I'm not 100% sure if everybody wants this change as is.

Carlos, Gyuyoung, any comment or concern?

[Martin Robinson]

I definitely support anything that makes development less painful. I do sort of prefer DependenciesGTK and DependenciesEFL to avoid making too deeply nested directories.

You should probably print an error and quit in this case.

The error here would be "Cannot get JHBuild path for platform that isn't GTK+ or EFL." since presumably not specifying a platform means --mac or whatever.
