Uninitialized rectangle??

Hi,

I once noticed that this code caused an assertion failure when placed
in awakeFromNib.

NSStatusBar *statusBar = [NSStatusBar systemStatusBar];
statusItem = [[statusBar statusItemWithLength:26] retain];
NSRect frameRect = [[statusItem view] frame];
MyStatusItemView *theView = [[MyStatusItemView alloc]
initWithFrame:frameRect];
[theView setDelegate:self];
[statusItem setView:theView];
[theView release];

I didn't think much about it then - I simply moved the code to
applicationDidFinishLaunching and everything was fine. But now I'm
told the app is crashing nevertheless, AFAIK under 10.5.8 only:

3/2/10 3:12:49 PM MyProcess[13261] *** Assertion failure in
-[MyStatusItemView initWithFrame:],
/SourceCache/AppKit/AppKit-
949.54/AppKit.subproj/NSView.m:1099
3/2/10 3:12:49 PM MyProcess[13261] Uninitialized rectangle passed to
[View initWithFrame:].
3/2/10 3:13:38 PM com.apple.launchd[115]
([0x0-0x104104].my.process[13261]) Exited abnormally: Interrupt

It's definitely related to the app/nib not being up and ready to go.
I'm displaying a dialog on first run in awakeFromNib. When the dialog
is displayed (delaying the execution of this code), it works fine. On
second launch it's a no go.

How can the system status bar not be initialized at this point? It's
not even part of the nib...

Thanks.
