Interesting, Tom.  For several years, I was only able to symbolicate about half of the crash reports I received.  Then I learned that gdb was using Spotlight to find dSYM files.  So I started manually pointing gdb to known dSYMs with the add-dsym command, as shown in my earlier post in this thread.  Since then, my success rate has been 100%.
