I am new too, so take my reply with a bit of caution.

I think it is an unitialized array, as you suppose, but I would
reorganize your code with a struct, and use ArrayList (because you
shoule declare the array size in advance, while ArrayList is dynamic):

struct Tab {
 public Label label,
 public ScrolledWindow window,
 public WebKit.WebView view,
 public WebKit.WebFrame frame
};

private ArrayList<Tab> tab_list;

construct {
 this.tab_list = new ArrayList<Tab>;
}

public void append_new_browser_window(string url_to_load)
{
 tab_count++;
 tab_list[tab_count].label = new Label("...");
 tab_list[tab_count].window = new ScrolledWindow(null, null);
 ...
}

As I said, I am a noob, so maybe there are errors or better ways to do
it. Hope someone more expert corrects me :)

Bye.
