With NSZombieEnabled set to YES as instructed, I got the following on the most
recent crash
2013-05-13 13:17:12.964 Emacs[66253:1307] *** -[CTFontDescriptor objectForKey:]: message sent to deallocated instance 0x1336d9920
Program received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.
0x00007fff8ddf6d57 in ___forwarding___ ()
(gdb)
That's it. Emacs disappeared at that point and hung around; eventually I had
to Force Quit.
This seems to support the Zombie Hypothesis. What should I do about it?
I've put the backtrace below. (bt full gave no symbol table
information, and xbacktrace does not appear to be available on my gdb.)
The previous crash happened shortly after our correspondence before
I changed the environment setting. I've included the top (for brevity)
of that backtrace below. It seems to be a null pointer access.
Again, nsfont_open is showing up in both.
Thanks for your help,
Chris
