I've been battling with this intermittent crash for about two weeks now and can't figure it out for the life of me. I've got try/catch blocks around nearly all my code, and definitely around any code which runs in a separate thread, but it's not catching whatever causes this crash. Also, I'm not even convinced it's my threads causing the crash as this one happened while a modal sheet was being displayed, before any of my external threads got started.

Exception Type:  EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000001, 0x0000000090d5c02c
Crashed Thread:  6

Thread 6 Crashed:
0 com.apple.CoreFoundation 0x90d5c02c CFRunLoopWakeUp + 156
1 com.apple.Foundation 0x903ad0e4 _backgroundActivity + 440

EXC_BREAKPOINT means the process deliberately killed itself (including `int3` on i386, `trap` on ppc, `__builtin_trap()` in gcc). In the case of CFRunLoopWakeUp(), it's halting because it tried and failed to send a Mach message to that run loop. Most likely this means the target run loop has already been deleted, but other Mach messaging problems are possible.


_backgroundActivity is part of NSFileHandle, to perform things like - readInBackgroundAndNotify. Perhaps there's bad memory management of an NSFileHandle somewhere.
