r30981 turned on Profile-Guided Optimization (PGO) in the Windows Release configuration by default. VC++ Express doesn't support PGO, so the Release build is broken by default for all VC++ Express users. There is a workaround, which is to turn off PGO using the following command: sed -i -e 's/LinkTimeCodeGeneration="4"/LinkTimeCodeGeneration="1"/' ~/WebKit/WebKit/win/WebKit.vcproj/WebKit.vcproj We need to make the build work by default again!

Fixed by sfalken in r31033, which turned off PGO by default.
