Summary0002159: nsgtk crashes on selecting view source on the default page
DescriptionThe browser_window_create lines in browser.c:
if (!(flags & BW_CREATE_HISTORY)) {
    if (!(flags & BW_CREATE_CLONE) || existing == NULL) {
will always assert because there is no BW_CREATE_HISTORY, or BW_CREATE_CLONE flag in the gtk/dialogs/source.c:
Steps To Reproduce1) Created user, git downloaded ns and libs.
2) Installed to cusom location. PREFIX=/home/user/local
3) Setup PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/user/local/lib/pkgconfig & PATH=/home/user/local/bin
4) Compile libs, compile nsgtk
5) Setup NETSURFRES=/home/user/local/share/netsurf
6) cd to home dir, run netsurf, click 'view', choose 'view source', boom.
 
Additional Informationcreated a simple patch and works, however I'm not confident on whether the issue is address properly.

 I am completely unable to reproduce this either from the about:welcome default or about:blank

can you run netsurf with -v and attach the resulting log to this bug please?

 OK to reproduce this needs to be the blank window not the welcome page
