I have an intermittent error that I can not make any progress on solving so I 
thought I would ask for some help from someone more experienced than myself in 
debugging. Program execution halts in Xcode with the following error: 

MyApp(469,0x1009fbcc0) malloc: *** error for object 0x12f6b19a0: pointer being 
freed was not allocated *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

Following the instructions and adding a symbolic break point 
(malloc_error_break) results in nothing different. The application still halts 
at the same location with the same error.

I have searched through every stack frame and can find no reference to the 
pointer in question 0x12f6b19a0. You would think that this pointer would be 
located somewhere in one of the stack frames. A po or p on the pointer in the 
debug console produces nothing useful.

The stack looks like this:

#0      0x00000001008700b6 in __kill ()
#1      0x00000001009109f6 in abort ()

Any suggestions?
