Or, if the user is more technically apt, #3 can be 'gdb <path>',
'run', and when it crashes, 'bt' to get a backtrace.

You'll need to make sure you have the unstripped release binary (not a debug version) of the same app version for this backtrace to be useful. If you don't, you will have to send the user a new binary.


Also the NSZombie will prevent a crash, so the user will need to set the appropriate breakpoint before running the program.

You might have the best results just sending the user an instrumented binary. Even something simple like a launcher.
