These are the errors Epiphany dumps to the console when this crash occurs. Perhaps this is related to xorg 6.8.0? I'll try downgrading later to see.

This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'. (Details: serial 3516 error_code 8 request_code 70 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

try to get a backtrace (with debugging symbols)
this is supposedly a problem with xorg-x11

Latest version seems to have fixed this.
