The “s” prefix here is not WebKit style. I think we were talking about a style like s_disabledComponents for static data members, but I don’t think we planned to use a prefix at all for file-scoped globals.

But further, this global does not have to exist outside the disableUnsupportedComponents function. You can just put the static bool in there.

Code needs a why comment.

> WebCore/platform/graphics/win/QTMovie.cpp:287
> +    ComponentDescription nullDesc = {'null', 'base', kAppleManufacturer, 0, 0};
> +    Component nullComp = FindNextComponent(0, &nullDesc);

I would like the code better if there was less Desc and Comp and more Description and Component.

> WebCore/platform/graphics/win/QTMovie.cpp:294
> +        Component disabledComp = 0;
> +        while (disabledComp = FindNextComponent(disabledComp, &components[i]))

Ditto.

Actually, I don't much like the way this code is factored either.  I'm going to submit a new patch which moves around where some of the implementation lives.

Embarrassing.  This bug is a duplicate of https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45603.  The Radar was never updated with the original bugzilla bug.  Even more embarrassing, my two different implementations lived in entirely different places.  

No wonder I didn't like how it was factored!

I'm going to obsolete my patch, and hopefully we can all forget this ever happened.
