Yikes, that doesn't look good. The problem here is going to be in WebKit's FreeType backend, so the first step is to please help move this to the right Bugzilla. Canned reply:

Thanks for taking the time to report this.
This issue is most likely a bug in WebKit. Please report the bug to https://bugs.webkit.org/ including a link to this bug report and noting the version of WebKitGTK+ that you have installed. When reporting the WebKit bug, be sure to include the prefix '[FreeType]' in the bug summary and select the 'WebKit Gtk' component.

When reporting the bug, please also mention whether you've made any changes to your Fontconfig configuration, or if you're just using the default settings. Thanks!
