No, it looks like a malloc free list pointer. The base address was
0xc0000003 (in edx), which is NULL with the top two and bottom two
bits all inverted. malloc masks its free list pointers that way on
Leopard, and stores a free list pointer at the beginning of every
freed block. So this pointer came from some code reading from a freed
block. In objc_msgSend(), usually the receiver object has already been
freed, and the malloc pointer was stored in place of the isa pointer.
Coincidental resemblance... Just jumping at shadows :-)
So you crashed in objc_msgSend:

Nice page. Very clear. Thanks for the link.
