In simple terms, it means create a file named Makefile.local in the 
/usr/ports/www/webkit-gtk2 directory where USE_GCC=any is the file's 
sole line of text.

E.g.:

echo USE_GCC=any > /usr/ports/www/webkit-gtk2/Makefile.local

At home I have a bunch of virtual machines, and on some of them I, 
until recently, forced clang as the C and C++ compiler using the 
proper directives in /etc/make.conf. clang doesn't understand the 
library format used for some of the libraries belonging to 
www/webkit-gtk2, thus the need to force the www/webkit-gtk2 port to 
use the GCC compiler.

I stopped forcing clang as the compiler in /etc/make.conf, and moved 
those incatations to /etc/src.conf for my stable/10 and head VMs.
