So the following patch seems to make webkit 1.4.2 mostly usable.
This doesn't fix all issues with epiphany or xxxterm. I have been
making updates to xxxterm to work around some issues. I started working
with the upstream guys but they are less than interested because "linux
works". The core of the issue is that they reset ulimit values despite
being set properly by the browser. Secondly web sockets keep half open
connections around longer because they never issue a close and it is
trivially simple to run out of file descriptors.
Can we please get this in to at least stabilize webkit?
