Hi,

wpewebkit still FTBFS on some architectures due to the tail call issue [1]:

FAILED: [code=1] Source/ThirdParty/skia/CMakeFiles/Skia.dir/src/core/SkOpts.cpp.o
/usr/bin/sh4-linux-gnu-g++ (...) -c /build/reproducible-path/wpewebkit-2.52.5/Source/ThirdParty/skia/src/core/SkOpts.cpp

 3935 | HIGHP_TAIL_STAGE(set_base_pointer, std::byte* p) {
      |

This should be easy to fix by syncing the no-must-tail.patch which is currently
missing from wpewebkit [2] from webkit2gtk.

Could you do that?

Thanks,
Adrian
