crashes while entering URL in new tab

jhbuilt ephy against jhbuilt gtk HEAD as of this morning, so ~2.7.2. I *think* i was entering a new URL, but I'm not sure.

Had this again, this time again while entering a URL (specifically, open new tab, hit ctl+l, start typing, boom.)
Exact steps that caused it this time: * open new tab * immediately hit ctl+l * start typing 'lwn', which I expect to bring up 'lwn.net' in the autocomplete * arrow down to get to the autocomplete lwn.net boom. Not 100% reproduceable, but has now happened to me four times today.
Is it possible you could compile epiphany against mozilla or firefox compiled from source with the patch from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300226 and see if that fixes it?
Have rebuilt with the patch + firefox HEAD(?), and so far (minimal testing, so talk to me tomorrow ;) no problems.
Ok, NOTGNOME. Please re-open if you get this again.
Got it again twice this morning with the patch. Updated trace: Backtrace was generated from '/home/louie/jhbuilt/bin/epiphany' Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1". `system-supplied DSO at 0xffffe000' has disappeared; keeping its symbols.

Bah. appears I may have been running my system ephy. Am being more careful now about running the jhbuilt ephy; will reopen if still a problem.
I committed a fix for the only thing that could imaginably have caused this (even if it shouldn't have been called at all :).
