Is it just me or has has IC gone crazy in 7b39? The following crashes my application:

Thread 0 Crashed:
#0 0x00000000 in 0x0
#1 0x92e7cb94 in ICPrefSystemConfiguration:: SetBoolDataForKeyFromIntData(__CFDictionary*, unsigned char const*, void const*) (ICPrefSystemConfiguration:: SetBoolDataForKeyFromIntData(__CFDictionary*, unsigned char const*, void const*) + 88)

This is a known problem which is actually caused by another part of the OS writing number-formatted prefs to disk where it used to write Boolean-formatted prefs. This change tripped up IC, which wasn't prepared for CFNumbers. The change has been reverted in newer builds (and IC has been made more resistant to unexpected data).
