A quick googling shows https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=896669 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/midori/+bug/721313, but nothing in the upstream bugtracker. If it's a regression from 1.2.6 you should check the commits made since it on http://gitorious.org/webkitgtk, cf the changelog at http://gitorious.org/webkitgtk/stable/blobs/master/WebKit/gtk/NEWS I don't see anything obvious..
