Gah! I *am* starting to hallucinate, aren't I...

What version of OS X were you using? I think there's been quite a major =
overhaul of OpenGL in 10.3. There seems to be a general wailing and =
gnashing of teeth about 10.3.4 in particular.

Plus, you might need to open and close Blender a few times because it =
isn't quite reproducible (but all the debug traces that I've done have =
pointed to OpenGL functions).

Sometimes it will run fine, sometimes it will crash and provide a debug =
trace, and other times it will just crash the entire system.
