Bug Description

Using Webkit2 + GTK3 Midori via the 'lp:midori' branch (r7156).

An example of this can be demonstrated here:

Clicking on the 'try it' button results in a segmentation fault.

Running 'http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/tryit.asp?filename=tryjsref_win_open' and clicking the 'try it' button in Epiphany/GNOME Web (Webkit2, GTK3) does not result in a segmentation fault.

Perhaps this rules out a problem with the browser engine?

Compiling Webkit2 takes a ridiculously long time... But hopefully it yields more beneficial clues.

You want to use the lp:~midori/midori/webKitTwoOnly branch, where this has been fixed.
