Subject: xwidget-webkit-execute-script does not protect script against GC
Date: Mon, 21 May 2018 14:22:53 +0200

The script argument to xwidget-webkit-execute-script is not protected
against GC.  Since strings may be relocated by GC the pointer passed to
webkit_web_view_run_javascript may become invalid any time during the
asynchronous execution.

Andreas.
