FS#45057I compiled dwb using -Os -march=i686 -mtune=i686 (-O1/ -O2/ -O3 crash)
It is the second packages that I use the same workarond
Maybe due line 41 on https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/webkitgtk ?
dwb uses loads of deprecated functions, also includes patches to disable -Werror and the current package doesn't build, not with extra, not with testing. If webkitgtk2 was broken, more applications would suffer from this.
I suggest to drop it from the repos.
