I've noticed something weird while looking at the GtkAdjustmentWatcher code. The idle source is not correctly reset in some cases, so I'm not sure but the patch attached to bug #119003 could fix this problem. 

I think something like this could have happened:

1.- WebView is created
2.- updateAdjustmentsFromScrollbarsLater is called from ChromeClient::contentsSizeChanged. This method also schedules a web view resize
3.- web view size allocate is called before the update scrollbar idle source is called (since resize has higher priority than idle sources)
4.- size allocate calls GtkAdjustmentWatcher::updateAdjustmentsFromScrollbars that resets the idle source without actually destroying the source (see bug #119003)
5.- web view is destroyed and GtkAdjustmentWatcher too.
6.- update adjustments idle source callback is called.
7.- crash!

I guess it doesn't crash earlier because GtkAdjustmentWatcher is stack allocated so the pointer is still valid after it has been deleted. 

could someone try the patch in bug #119003 to see if the problem can be still reproduced?
