Words appear on the image in epiphany-gecko

If I watch this page (http://www.scoutwiki.org) words appear on the image, while IE, Iceweazel (and Firefox), Opera, Konqueror, Netsurf show this page perfectly.

not confirming the issue on jaunty there

It depends on font size if one can reproduce this with epiphany. Firefox changes also picture size when you chage font size so it's not affected.

I can confirm this issue using epiphany-browser in Xubuntu 9.10. I get the same image as attached by the reporter.

apt-cache policy epiphany-browser
