I have to say that the syntax weight of gyp files (quotes, commas, braces,

designed for human consumption (obviously Xcode is worse).
Ant is pretty verbose as well, partially due to the XML syntax.
It is sometimes generated by tools (IDEs) and sometime written
by hand.
(Because Ant is implemented in Java and primarily aimed at building
Java projects, it's not a good match for WebKit, regardless.)
