Hi Anthony, Thanks for tracking down this problem. I have not seen this myself, since I don't delay-load WebKit.

It goes on to describe this The correct fix for this, which I will commit to the WinCairoRequirements bundle (hopefully tonight some time) is to build Pixman and Cairo using pthreads, rather than native Windows threads. This fix has been confirmed by another user, and I think it will resolve your problem. Thanks for your help, and please contact me with any further problems you encounter. I don't run any XP boxes anymore, so I rely on folk like you to find these problems. Thanks, -Brent
