As a follow-up, I think this is related to 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85064

Something tells me DRI3 isn't really working with i965.  This is 
largely going unnoticed since when DRI2 is available it's usually used 
instead.  webkit-gtk is not falling back to DRI2 without DRI3 being 
specifically disabled with LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE=1.
