Clark, are you referring to the iOS App Store? Because I just attached
Xcode's debugger to a copy of Acorn purchased from the Mac App Store.

I notice that Rick never actually specified whether he was concerned
about the Mac or iOS, but I just assumed that it was common knowledge
that one cannot attach a debugger to an iOS App Store app.

I was indeed referring to an iOS app. Turned out, the Archive I had also exhibited the behavior, so I used that to diagnose the problem, which turned out to be incredibly bad behavior on the part of Apple's runtime loader. I still don't understand how it could happen, but changing my app's symbol visibility made it go away, and we submitted a new build.

I've tried to report this to Apple, but so far there's been no response.

What is the bug number?
