Ah yes - I plan to drop this as soon as the distros update the
pywebkitgtk. Right now I plan the code to check for system install of
pywebkitgtk, and if not found, load the appropriate module for x86
(32bit or 64bit). I plan to attempt to build for PPC as well.

webkitgtk will not be required - what is shipped by the distributions
is enough. we need to build pywebkitgtk for now. Attached is the patch
for glucose-external.modules.
