Webkit-GTK svn ebuild

I have been very interested in Webkit ever since the GTK port was announced. It seems like a good fit for integration with Gnome applications like Epiphany and Evolution. Right now I'm using it in Evolution-RSS and Midori, a Webkit-GTK browser. There are a couple of svn snapshot ebuilds in portage but I find myself constantly creating new snapshot ebuilds to test out the latest Webkit-GTK along with the svn ebuild of Midori. So in a similar fashion to my sK1 svn ebuild I decided to create a Webkit-GTK svn ebuild. Be forewarned that the checkout process takes a very long time. Based on my genlop output the checkout process alone took 40 minutes and compilation took another 20 minutes.
