I am intermittently getting a SIGSEGV when using a WebView in Android 2.1.
The SIGSEGV is inside /system/lib/libwebcore.so .
Is there a known problem with this WebView implementation that I could work around with to avoid the SEGV?

SIGSEGVindicates a crash in native code. Assuming that you are not using the NDK, then the native code will be the firmware.If you can reproduce this error on multiple Android devices, or in the emulator, create a sample project that generates the crash and post it as an issue if it is not already out there. If you only see this on one specific device, contact that device manufacturer, if possible.
However, there is no workaround for a
SIGSEGV, other than to try to determine what in your Web content or Java code triggers it and to get rid of that content or code.
