I have installed the gutsy "proposed" epiphany (and other) updates
(2.20.1-0ubuntu1), which now allows me to install the epiphany dbgsym
packages from the ddeb repo Pedro mentioned at
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash above. I've also installed
the following dbgsym packages to try to get further through the trace:

$ dpkg -l |grep dbg

Attached is a gdb backtrace.

The problem is intermittent, and rebooting (but not re-logging into or
restarting X) appears to (sometimes) solve the problem. For instance, at
the moment when I try to run it from gdb to get a backtrace it will exit
normally with the "epiphany:6742 WARNING" message (see first post
above).

It feels like a problem with dbus...?

1. Reported in Fedora FC6: http://lists.linuxcoding.com/rhl/2007q1/msg00081.html
    proposed solution - reboot, doesn't always work.
2. Reported in Debian: 
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-gnome-maintainers/2006-December/029412.html
    proposed solution - interfering dead epiphany processes, not the problem 
(ps -ef|grep epiphany reports nothing)
