USE=jit for www-client/midori is exclusively used to set or unset the same USE flag on net-libs/webkit-gtk. This triggers all kinds of nastiness (pointlessly rebuilding midori when you toggle it, for instance) and is probably some kind of standards violation.
Did you verify that the rebuild is indeed pointless and not actually necessary upon switching USE=jit?
(In reply to Michał Górny from comment #1) > Did you verify that the rebuild is indeed pointless and not actually > necessary upon switching USE=jit? I did. USE=jit in net-libs/webkit-gtk sets some preprocessor defines in the ebuild and otherwise shouldn't affect ABI/API output (like header changes and such, but of course that might be mistaken). www-client/midori sources do not mention [Jj][Ii][Tt].
That's not what I was asking. I was asking if you have tried rebuilding webkit-gtk upon installing midori in both directions, and have confirmed that midori works fine in both cases.
