Are you able to reproduce this in a sample app? I tried the following
but got no crash:

#include <stdio.h>
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

static void foo(NSString **fillMeIn) {
        [@[@"a"] enumerateObjectsUsingBlock:^(id obj, NSUInteger idx,
        BOOL *stop) {
                *fillMeIn = obj;
                *stop = YES;
        }];
}

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
        @autoreleasepool {
                NSString *out;
                foo(&out);
                printf("%s", out.UTF8String);
        }
        return 0;
}
