Using a modified WebCore in the WebKit framework



I have been successful at compiling WebCore with my small 
modifications needed for some custom JS handling.

However, my application doesn't link directly with WebCore,
but rather links with the WebKit framework to embed a browser.
It appears that the public /System/library.../WebKit always 
attempts to load the WebCore in its Frameworks folder (because 
it was built that way?) If I replace the public WebCore in 
/System/Library/... with my built version, I can see my mods 
being executed.  But this is undesirable, as any apps linking 
with WebKit will be subject to my customized WebCore.  I wish
to have only my app use my customized WebCore (via WebKit)

I would think that I just need WebKit to look at relative paths 
for its private frameworks (WebCore/JavaScriptCore) and then I
can copy WebKit into my application bundle as a private
framework (with my modified WebCore).

But it appears I have to recompile WebKit to remove the absolute
path link to /System/Library/.../WebCore

Any ideas?
