Hi Riccardo, thank you for pointing out this issue. As I don’t have a Bigendian 64 bit system you will have to do the testing to pin this down. First I would propose that you add a few NSLog statements in NSButtonCell.m after line 1773. Most likely the data is not aligned in the unsigned int in the way the code expects it to be. The structure _GSButtonCellFlags is defined in GSCodingFlags.h and the code expects it to have 32 bits. Please report back the values you see there (bFlags and buttonCellFlags).
