Today after reboot I noticed Tangram could not load many websites. After installing Epiphany it was crashing on those websites.

There is no backtrace, only this info:
> (epiphany:7295): Adwaita-WARNING **: 15:20:19.598: Using GtkSettings:gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme with libadwaita is unsupported. Please use AdwStyleManager:color-scheme instead.
> (epiphany:7295): epiphany-WARNING **: 15:20:19.834: Cannot fetch source for filter e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855 from <>: The URL can’t be shown
> (epiphany:7295): epiphany-WARNING **: 15:20:23.043: Web process crashed

The website that always crashes for me is https://fosstodon.org after it almost finishes loading.

This looks like a CFLAGS bug, I have recompiled net-libs/webkit-gtk with safer CFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe" and it woks correctly.

Do you think it's -O2 vs -O3 that's responsible, or some of the other CFLAGS?

Looks like the fault of "-O3".
Fails on runtime when compiled with "-march=native -pipe -O3".

Anybody was able to reproduce?

Works fine for me, but mine's -O3 compiled with clang

I have been daily driving epiphany with -O3 and use fosstodon.org daily with
no crashes on version 2.46.
I will note that <net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.46 was very crashy in general but
with the newer versions its been very stable for me

Yup, it looks ok with newest version.
