Thanks for that suggestion Ben - I haven't come across that method of debugging 
before. I tried doing it based on the address that I got from the stack trace, 
but I just seem to get the things relevant to the NSNumber:

$ /Developer/usr/bin/malloc_history 12908 0x100e00860

ALLOC 0x100e00860-0x100e0087f [size=32]: thread_7fff70ee2be0 |start | main | 
NSApplicationMain | objc_msgSend | lookUpMethod | prepareForMethodLookup | 
_class_initialize | _class_initialize | _class_initialize | +[NSApplication 
initialize] | +[NSUserDefaults(NSUserDefaults) standardUserDefaults] | 
-[NSUserDefaults(NSUserDefaults) initWithUser:] | CFPreferencesCopyAppValue | 
__CFXPreferencesGetSearchListForBundleID | __CFXPreferencesGetSourceForTriplet 
| CFNotificationCenterAddObserver | _CFXNotificationRegister | CFNumberCreate | 
_CFRuntimeCreateInstance | malloc_zone_malloc

I'm therefore assuming I'll have to get the output from -all_events and dig 
through that to sort it out?

Regards

Gideon
