From a program that's been shipping for about a year now without stability complaints, I user sent a crash log that I find vexing. Why? Because here's the call stack.

That bug looks suspiciously like you're stomping memory somewhere. Often this is when you're releasing an object that you don't own but access it later on. This will often work fine several times because the memory hasn't been reused and thus still contains the data from the previous (valid) object, and then suddenly part of it gets re-used and everything goes bang, either in your object, or in the object that got the re-used space assigned, because you changed it through a call to your released object.
