I've tried your recipe, and installing the epiphany-browser package,
neither segfault. And I've re-reviewed the changes in u-a between
1.17.1 and 1.17.4, and nothing obvious jumps to me. Could you attach
your /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/ and /etc/alternatives/ directories and
to where do the x-www-browser and gnome-www-browser generic names point
to currently in your file system? (Those would be the /usr/bin/$alt and
/usr/share/man/man1/$alt.1.gz links.)

Thanks,
Guillem
