  Encoding issue in Epiphany Browser 2.28

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

  Hi.

  I'm having issues with the new Epiphany handling of Chinese GB and
  Chinese BIG5 encoding. I was trying to have a line of Chinese BIG5
  text translated to Chinese GB using Yahoo Babel Fish but the resulting
  translation turned out to be nothing but gibberish (see
  http://www.imgplace.com/viewimg405/7641/62encodingissues228gnom.png).

  Trying with Firefox firefox 3.5.4+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.1 went
  smoothly i.e. it returned the correct Chinese GB translation as
  expected (see the attached
  http://www.imgplace.com/viewimg405/8997/56encodingissues228gnom.png).

  It seems again to be a webkit and not gecko issue I had no such
  problems in previous versions of Epiphany e.g. GNOME 2.26. Just not
  sure if this is again an upstream bug like #475174 is or otherwise.
  Hope someone can help enlighten me on it.

   affects ubuntu/epiphany-browser

  Linux rajasun-desktop 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:04:26 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
