Two of the instances never reach method -viewDidMoveToWindow.

Is there a way to instrument the source code or the executable, such that I can
receive a line-by-line trace of the execution of the three screensaver
instances from that user?

I am wondering if two of the instances are crashing.
But I don't know how to retrieve more info about it (if any).

Best regards, Gabriel
