When the crash happens, I get the spinning beach ball until I
terminate the process, so I cannot investigate it any further (I
think?). Anyway, this is what I get from the debugger:

Program received signal:  “EXC_BAD_ACCESS”.

It would be really good to get a backtrace. Are you launching the process with gdb, or at least attaching before the crash? And after the crash, gdb is confused and can't get info about the process? Hm.


If you run without gdb, do you get a regular "unexpectedly quit" alert with the option to send a crash report (which includes a backtrace)?

Have you tried running with malloc in scribbling/heap-checking mode, to see if anything funky's going on with the heap? ('man malloc' for details on the environment variables to set for this.)
