304666@main introduced an optimization in WPE to link the jsc binary and other test binaries against libWPEWebKit instead of statically linking (embedding) WTF, JSC and other libraries inside. However, it happens that when DEVELOPER_MODE is not enabled we pass a linker filter to libWPEWebKit that makes many of the symbols (JSC::* WTF:*) required to link this binaries not longer visible. Thanks to Pablo Saavedra for the original report and an initial patch proposal

This is the filter: Source/WebKit/PlatformWPE.cmake-if (NOT DEVELOPER_MODE AND NOT CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME MATCHES "Darwin") Source/WebKit/PlatformWPE.cmake: WEBKIT_ADD_TARGET_PROPERTIES(WebKit LINK_FLAGS "-Wl,--version-script,${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/webkitglib-symbols.map") Source/WebKit/PlatformWPE.cmake: set_property(TARGET WebKit APPEND PROPERTY LINK_DEPENDS "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/webkitglib-symbols.map") Source/WebKit/PlatformWPE.cmake-endif ()
