Yep, sure is:

rlrevell mindpipe:~/qinetiq$ ldd /usr/bin/epiphany  | grep firefox
        libgtkembedmoz.so => /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/libgtkembedmoz.so
(0xb7ef7000)
        libxpcom.so => /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/libxpcom.so (0xb7e46000)
        libplds4.so => /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/libplds4.so (0xb7e43000)
        libplc4.so => /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/libplc4.so (0xb7e3e000)
        libnspr4.so => /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/libnspr4.so (0xb7e0c000)

Anyway it's much snappier than Firefox.  Nice work.
