Latest epiphany will be provided as a replacement for midori. It works 
fine here in the core-image-sato under qemu. I can't promise it will 
work on ARM, but any ARM-specific issues are almost certainly in 
webkit's (or other web engine's) javascript JIT code and have nothing to 
do with the browser.
