        Is there any sample code somewhere that would should how to use 
create_dispatch_queue in apps built for ios 6 and greater?

        I've been fooling around with this but cannot find anything that works 
except for this, which is for ios 5.1 and earlier:
        
        m_dispatch_source = dispatch_source_create(DISPATCH_SOURCE_TYPE_TIMER, 
0, 0, m_dispatch_queue);

        Judging from David's remark below about dispatch types becoming Obj-C 
objects at ios 6.0, it is probably the first argument that is causing this to 
crash if the app is built for ios >= 6.0. But in all the sample code I find, 
there is no mention of using anything other than DISPATCH_SOURCE_TYPE_TIMER as 
the first argument.  

        Thanks, Jeff

Sorry, I should have supplied that - it crashes inside create_dispatch_queue at

How is your app crashing?

IIRC, 6.0 was when dispatch types became Obj-C objects. I’m not certain what 
issues that may cause, but I don’t expect them to be insurmountable.
