epihpany is not able to render webpages correctly on my ppc system (see below). Some pages render correctly, but most of the webpages do not render at all but show funky characters (no page visible at all). epiphany was built with webkit 2.16.1.

It's the same problem as in webkit-2.14.x (see bug #167100), but the wrong colors issue seems fixed now.
