I believe the crash file you sent said it was a 16 inch machine. Or maybe that
was the revision of iMac. In any case, unless one has the source code, none of
the information in that file is very useful.
It does tell you there are 9 threads and thread 7 (the eight thread ) crashed.
But it doesn't even say what the process name was . Or was this a kernel crash?
Best wishes,
Jonathan Cohn
