memory management and error case handling seems a bit odd/incomplete in general ... here the set pixbuf seems to have

  height = -1

which makes us end up with strange things later on.

e.g.
  cairo_pixels = g_malloc (height * cairo_stride);
...
      guchar *q = cairo_pixels;
...
              MULT(q[0], p[2], p[3], t1);
=> crash

Hi Dave,

Can you describe a reproducible test case that exposes the bug? I've tried closing a PDF in evince at the same time I had a bubble on screen but that does not trigger the bug.

David: check out a few of the duplicates - there are a lot of different scenarios. For me it was always the following: download a file with the epiphany-browser - it will open a popup when the download is finished.

it happens after every download in epiphany-browser indeed
