This intermediate library should be built straight into WebCore for speed and complexity improvements.

Some notes on my patch for this issue:

1. Instead of sending the class list directly to the header generators
and making the build depend on the GNUMakefile.am (leading to more
rebuilding than necessary), I've separated to class list to a separate
file. This was also necessary as we no longer list the classes in the
GNUMakefile.am.

2. There was an issue where some places referenced a file in DerivedSources
and some in WebKit/gtk/webkit. I've fixed that issue as well (this revealed
the breakage and required fixing it).

3. The GDOM logic is now in the top-level GNUMakefile.am.

Patch fixing build issue

I've uploaded a patch which (hopefully) fixes the build issue. The previous patch wasn't incorrect, it just broke the dependency tracking for incremental builds. This new patch shouldn't require a clean build on the slaves.

Looks good to me, although the ChangeLog makes some references to older versions of the patch.
