How strange! Your project looks completely ordinary to me....

Seems like a reasonable fix to me. However, *if* you felt like trying
something else, how about using a subclass of NSScanner rather than a
category? You'll have to either re-point your code at it or use
poseAsClass:, but it might solve the problem. Of course I completely
understand a desire to simply cut loose from the 10.3 population
instead.
