the stack looks quite strange..
but if you open the debugger on that unwind error and see the
#resume:
context, evaluating:
self isDead yields to true.

it is a mystery however, how #resume: end up on the stack,
when you just closing the debugger window and terminating the process.
it seems like there's a bug somewhere which injects #resume: message send
on stack.
