comparison Evolution's email preview pane with and without problem

Description of problem:
On Fedora 34 after update to webkit2gtk3-2.32.1-1.fc34.x86_64 the setting "ulimit -s unlimited" causes WebKitWebProcess problems. Which in turn cause the e-mail client Evolution problems with saving drafts, graphical user interface display and replying to emails. Maybe more. Due to Evolution's terminal output I assume it is a problem in package webkit2gtk3.

File name search leads to /usr/libexec/webkit2gtk-4.0/WebKitWebProcess

Evolution's version number (3.40.0 or 3.40.1) does not matter. Changing webkit2gtk3 changes webkit2gtk3-jsc too.
In terminal:
- downgrade with: sudo dnf downgrade webkit2gtk3*
- update with: sudo dnf update -y webkit2gtk3*


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-data-server-langpacks-3.40.1-1.fc34.noarch
evolution-data-server-3.40.1-1.fc34.x86_64
evolution-langpacks-3.40.1-1.fc34.noarch
evolution-3.40.1-1.fc34.x86_64

no problem with:
webkit2gtk3-2.32.0-2.fc34.x86_64
webkit2gtk3-jsc-2.32.0-2.fc34.x86_64

problem with:
webkit2gtk3-2.32.1-1.fc34.x86_64
webkit2gtk3-jsc-2.32.1-1.fc34.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. configure Evolution with an account (can be local with sending OR receiving set to none) and close it
2. in terminal with Bash shell execute `ulimit -s unlimited`
3. in same terminal run evolution
4. open an email draft window and try to save it

Actual results:
In Evolution below subject line, above body area:
---8<---
Could not create message.

You may need to select different mail options.

Detailed error: RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded.

Output in terminal:

Expected results:
Using Evolution without problems.


Additional info:
You can put "ulimit -s unlimited" in /etc/profile.d/custom.sh (and re-log in) or in ~/.bashrc (and start a new terminal) to get the same results. No problem if it is stored in ~/.bash_profile. Maybe I did something wrong.

TCSH users store "limit stacksize unlimited" in custom.csh or ~/.cschrc or execute it in order to get the same results.

With the problem the email preview pane has a white border. Without problem a grey border. See attachment.

With the problem replying to an email leaves the email body empty, no quoted text.
