Thanks for providing this snippet.

Webkitgtk is a huge beast with a lot of dependencies. Therefore, there
is a significant chance that something else fails in the build before
that...

You can find all builds that had BR2_PACKAGE_WEBKITGTK=y by using:

  http://autobuild.buildroot.net/index.php?symbols%5BBR2_PACKAGE_WEBKITGTK%5D=y

but as you can see, all of them failed on some other package, most
likely even before getting to webkitgtk.

Ah and also: webkitgtk starts with a "w". So if nothing depends on
webkitgtk, webkitgtk is going to be the last package to be built.
