Gnome say this is a Mozilla bug.

"This is a great stacktrace, but it seems to be a Mozilla bug. Are the Ubuntu
guys perhaps using a patched Epiphany compiled against XR 1.9?"

Epiphany crashes *a lot* in hardy. Not always on the same web-pages.

with latest updates, almost all sites crash epiphany. It has become totally unusable. I uninstalled flash (as it appeared to have an impact, youtube sites crashed more often) to no effect. Firefox does not have this problem.

the xulrunner update of tonight appears to have fixed this. Can someone else please confirm it is working again?
