<pre>What's going wrong here is that the default WebContext object is destroyed in an atexit() handler. When that happens, the GDestroyNotify function passed to register_uri_scheme() is called, but at that point the Python or JS runtime has already been shut down, so it segfaults.
A library should definitely not register any atexit() handlers. Probably it should be OK to not destroy the default WebContext, since the memory will be reclaimed at the end of the process anyhow.</pre>
