Hi Thomas,

wiping the webkit checkout directories and manually restarting the build
slave made it fetch the updated version for me.
I wonder why such a manual restart is required when updating to a new
version of a tarball-provided dependency though (I recall the same
happened when we updated xulrunner), maybe a bug in jhbuild or it's just
slow to propagate such moduleset changes?
