webkitenums.cpp has a dependency on the final generated GNUmakefile, so modifying any GNUmakefile.am , forces the WebKit layer and the DOM bindings to rebuild. This make modifying something like WebCore/GNUmakefile a more expensive operation than it needs to be.

Robinson, Just an after thought. Wouldn't it be better to even move the libJavaScriptCore_la changes to JavaScriptCore/GNUmakefile.am? It makes the root GNUmakefile.am completely independent of any target specific changes and retains only the global flags and variables which are applicable for all the individual targets.

Yep! I had planned to do that in a later patch.
