If you have a recent / decent enough compiler, WebKit and XmlPatterns 
build fine. For example, using aCC series 6 on HP-UX. We also have patches 
pending inclusion for xlC 7 and 9 (AIX), which we will include as soon as 
we can. Sun Studio 12 should work too, but not out of the box for the 
moment. (Requires a few hacks and the use of a different STL)

Phonon is supported everywhere, since it doesn't make much advanced use of 
C++.

The Sun Studio issue is a good example of why STL isn't enough, even in 
2008.
