I'm afraid I haven't followed closely enough what you have done so far.
Things should work pretty much like for OpenSSL. There we have an optional
package that installs to /boot/common/ (libraries, headers, and whatever
else is necessary). This doesn't have much to do with the build system,
save that it is declared in build/jam/OptionalPackages. Dependencies are
declared in build/jam/OptionalPackageDependencies. Furthermore SSL is
declared as an optional build feature in build/jam/OptionalBuildFeatures.
An archive containing the libraries and the headers (can be the same one
used for the optional package) is extracted to a temporary location. Those
extracted libraries and headers are used in the build systems by code
needing them.
Analoguously there should be an optional package WebKit and a respective
optional build feature. An optional package WebPositive should be declared
in OptionalPackages -- replacing the previous one which just installs a
complete archive. Instead the optional package declaration should work
similar to the one for UserlandFS, installing the generated
executables/libraries. Declare the WebKit optional package a dependency of
WebPositive and it will be installed automatically. Curl and whatnot should
have been declared dependencies of WebKit and should therefore be installed
automatically as well.
Obviously the WebPositive optional package should only be added to the
image for gcc 4. For gcc 2 hybrid builds it will be added automatically as
well. I'm not sure about its dependencies, though. Might need some
tinkering in that case.
