Actually, I'm hitting the following sandbox violation:

com.apple.WebKit.WebContent.Development: Couldn't initialize sandbox profile [/Volumes/Data/webkit2/WebKitBuild/Debug/WebKit.framework/Resources/com.apple.WebProcess.sb], error '/Volumes/Data/webkit2/WebKitBuild/Debug/WebKit.framework/Resources/com.apple.WebProcess.sb:40:21: unbound variable:
	xpc-service-name-prefix
'

This crash only reproduces on Sierra, not High Sierra.

[Alexey Proskuryakov]

Ryosuke, can you roll back (or fix) now? Better to not have a broken WebKit overnight.

Temporarily reverted the sandbox change in macOS Sierra as follows:

Please either come up with a proper fix or close the bug based on what you want.

This change is correct -- I should have used <= in the comparison, as we don't want to change behavior pre-High Sierra.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for fixing this.

[Ryosuke Niwa]

I think we need to fix the condition per Dan's comment.
