Description Xan Lopez 2011-01-08 16:20:29 PST 
The recent move of WebCore into the Source directory makes us hit a limitation in the Linux argument length when doing the final link, since all the object files are passed as one string to the linker and each extra "Source/" bloats the end result. To workaround this (for now) create a temporary libWebCore.la library so we can do the linking in stages.

This is so sad after all the work we did to get rid of these. :( I suppose it's necessary for the time being though.
