How can I gracefully catch the application crashing. For instance,
Camino crashing will launch a debugger...is this actually cooca or is
it an application watching for a crash?

Camino has a crash reporting tool (Talkback) that installs signal
handlers ('man sigaction') to catch crashes. Using the
ExceptionHandling.framework or writing code to catch Mach exceptions
would also work.


Actually, using Cocoa/Obj-C/Mach exception handling is a better generalized solution than signal handlers. Signals are implemented as a subset of exceptions, IIRC.
