As discussed on webkit-dev (https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2008-June/004189.html), we should use a format more simple than XML to store information in .in files.

Patch will follow.

Looks fine.  Certainly a nicer format than before.  Parser looks like perl, bleh.  But looks like nice-ish perl.
