Thanks Vincent for the report. It is similar to http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/74637e3a3e4c37c3af0f3662504c28332e9c586c/build-end.log. We need to investigate if this is really Webkit that doesn't support DirectFB as a Gtk backend. If this is the case, then we simply need to prevent Webkit from being built if the selected Gtk backend is DirectFB. Or it is just a bug in Webkit that shouldn't include this header file, or should include it conditionnally or something like that. I personaly don't have enough time right now to dig into Webkit, so if you could have a look at this and give us your conclusions, it would be great. Thanks!
We have deprecated the DirectFB backend of Gtk, because it is unmaintained upstream, and it has been causing build issues for quite some time. Therefore, Gtk-Webkit on top of DirectFB is mostly dead, unless someone steps up with the corresponding upstream projects to maintain the DirectFB backend.
