New Gecko package - call for tests

[Jacek Caban]

Hi,

I've released first (and hopefully last) RC build of new Gecko package 
and attached a patch against current Wine Git to bug 16198
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16198
It's critical to make sure, that there will be no regressions due to the 
new Gecko, it'd much more work to fix such regression than a usual 
regressions. I'd appreciate any help with testing it. Instructions how 
to do it are in the bug report. Any application that uses MSHTML is 
worth testing, esp ones that extensively use it.

I will write more about the new release and future plans later in an 
other subject.

Thanks,
    Jacek

(Let me know if you'd prefer to discuss this in the bug report instead)

The patch didn't apply cleanly against today's wine-git. Can you
regenerate the patch? I tried applying the patch by hand, compiled,
but running wine iexplore causes a crash. Maybe I didn't apply the
patch correctly?

It doesn't matter for me.

That was because it contained a few patches that were committed today. 
I've attached a new patch.

That may be the reason.

Thanks!
