What I see is a failure in thread zero of my app -- that's the one

code KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE in a function called szone_free, in
libSystem.B.dylib.

This usually indicates heap corruption of some kind, which then causes the malloc code (containing szone_free) to crash later. You should probably try standard approaches for tracking down heap corruption - MallocDebug, libgmalloc, etc.
