Yay! It took all week but yesterday afternoon (Friday) I got my Snow Leopard bug fixed.

At the first part of the week, I tried to debug the crap out of the library trying to find out why this one line of code was causing me all of this grief. No dice. What ended up helping me fix the problem was a brute force approach. I created a test command-line application. I then threw all of the appropriate calls in the test application a little bit at a time until I got the crash to happen. Tedious, iterative, and time consuming, that's programming sometimes.

After a full week of using Snow Leopard I am on the fence wether to upgrade right at release. I didn't have any problems with any application that I had installed and the performance increase (especially of Xcode) might justify the risk.
