(oops, I originally just hit reply in email as I do at work .. now I'm pasting
it in here.)

Thanks pl -- well it wasn't too hard to figure out.

I experimented with my internet plugs, and determined that the crash is entirely
correlated with "GarminGpsControl.plugin" -- removing it from the Internet
Plug-Ins made the problem go away. (info.plist pasted in below.) Originally I
had version 2.6.1 which crashed, and then I updated to the latest 2.8.1, and
that also crashed.

Perhaps my original bug number should be just for the Garmin case, although you
can see where this basic bug pattern may be kind of common, as I figure the code
quality and updating of internet plugins is below average. The free Garmin plug
is for gps, taking in internet geo data and sending it to a usb connected gps
receiver ... they probably just tested it on that case, not testing the more
general plugin case in some way.

I would consider adding a "Don't Use Media Plugins" preference of some sort, so
that when some random plugin bug or security problem crops up a year from now,
it makes the short-term workaround easy. Or plugins could be enabled/disable
individually (hmm, that could speed up startup too).

Cheers,

Nick
