I can't reproduce the crash; however, I do get some "critical"
warnings from glib because we pass NULL pointers to g_object_unref,
and no image.

So there appear to be at least two bugs here. svg_load_image passes a
NULL pointer to g_object_unref, and eww passes bad cached data to
image.c. And possibly a third bug that's causing your crash.

Which version of librsvg are you using?
