If you filter out -g from CFLAGS, the .a isn't too large and webkit
builds successfully. I'm not sure this is a viable solution for the
archive though. I suppose splitting libWebCore up into multiple smaller
libraries would solve both problems, but that would require diving into
webkit's build system...
