Apparently this is a GTK-specific environment variable. Come to think of it, I think it's not actually possible to disable AC mode in WPE: I notice our hardware acceleration API does not exist there, so likely not. Possibly for the better.
But at least we now know that the problem lies somewhere in that part of the code.

On a Raspberry Pi, probably yes. I'm afraid users are starting to think of it as a magic environment variable that makes WebKit work properly. Even some applications have started using it, which is sad....
