Thanks for the suggestions Tom. I know about that things, but the original code was a bit bigger, where I need a mutable array and other stuff, and just trimmed out for the example.

But to back to on-topic: the code works fine on 10.6.8, the issue happens only on 10.7.5 and 10.8.2. If I call the method with performSelectorOnMainThread… instead of dispatching, everything works fine. Maybe I found a bug.
