Adrian,
that does indeed seem to fix it! Many thanks for figuring it out.
I'm still baffled as to why this suddenly started happening, but I'm
very happy to have it fixed.
cheers,
os.

Thanks to very friendly help from Floris Klinkert I finally figured
out a "solution". It's actually Floris' solution, as he had the same
problem a few month ago. Turns out the problem is not related to
universal binaries at all but to Ableton Live.
The crash seemingly comes from calling CFPreferencesCopyAppValue
(CFStringRef key, CFStringRef applicationID) inside Ableton Live and
using the CFSTR() macro for the applicationID parameter. It only
happens with native XCode targets. To avoid the situation one of the
CFStringCreate... functions can be used to create a CFString object
temporarily which can be released after the CFPreferences calls.
This is one of the weirdest crashes I came along in a long time and
it would be nice to know more about the real reasons. Maybe the CFSTR
() macro is somehow flawed, but that seems unlikely... It seems much
more probable that there's a slight bug in Ableton Live which puts
the OSX Preferences manager in a weird state leading to that crash -
which only happens in about 50% of my trials, but once even resulted
in a total system freeze.
Cheers,
Adrian
