Yan12125 and I have been working on the webkit2-gtk-* ports, and now the 
webkit2-gtk port is at the latest stable release, and the webkit2-gtk-devel 
port is at the latest development release.

This allows the latest and one-from latest versions of epiphany to build and 
function.

However I need to point out something that is probably going to be important in 
the future.

Development on the webkit2-gtk branch of webkit has diverged from Darwin 
support upstream. I'm sure there is some official announcement somewhere to be 
found, but over the past year or so, and past several versions, building 
webkit2-gtk on Darwin has required resurrecting previous versions of functions 
to either replace or #ifdef in to the code base.

At present, three files have to be essentially rewritten back to Darwin 
versions, but no doubt this is going to get worse over time if this trend 
continues, and will eventually reach an unsustainable state of affairs.

How this might impact the gnome ecosystem on MacPorts / Darwin is to be 
pondered.

Best,

Ken
