WebKitGTK+ 2.4.10 seems to have introduced a bug that is causing a crash when loading HTML images in Geary (See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=763933). This didn't occur using earlier versions of WebKitGTK+.

Geary currently implements user-controlled image loading by what amounts to using a random scheme string for the IMG SRC attribute - when the user has assented to loading images for a specific message, it updates every IMG SRC attribute value to be prefixed with the random scheme. The crash occurs during this process, at random, when displaying a HTML message.

A workaround exists in removing the src element first using webkit_dom_element_remove_attribute(), causing the subsequent call to webkit_dom_element_set_attribute() not crash. Workarounds that do not work include cloning the IMG element and setting the SRC element on that instead, nor does casting the element and using webkit_dom_html_image_element_set_src(). I didn't try creating a new Attr instance, setting the value on that, then setting that on the IMG element.

I know you guys aren't interested in supporting 2.4.x, but I thought I'd log it since it's a regression with 2.4.10 (thanks for doing a new release, BTW!).
