When I go to slashdot and read comments webkit (nightly, r31848) seems to crash pretty much every time. Crash occurs just after scrolling down to some critical point. If page is opened "normally" then everything works. Steps to reproduce: 1. Go to http://slashdot.org 2. Open some article (with enough comments) to background tab 3. Change to that tab 4. Scroll down 5. Crash!

Few corrections to reproducing steps 1. Go to http://slashdot.org 2. Open some article which has enough comments (and perhaps long ad thingies in the left bar) to background tab 3. Move mouse pointer to correct position (left bar area but after content, i.e. white area) and use keyboard to change tab 4. Scroll down while keeping mouse pointer stationery 5. When the comment command box (in the left bar) should start to move (i.e. stay on top edge of the screen) webkit crashes
