The changes I checked in earlier this week seem to fix most problems 
your seeing, there are 2 errors left related to the reuse of a class 
name (which the ObjC runtime doesn't support). The bus error is not 
fixed (yet).

We try to cover as much functionality as possible with unittests. We 
are getting closer and closer to that goal, but we are not there yet.

I regulary run the unittests using the runalltests script. I also try 
to remember to add a unittest whenever I fix bugs, but I often forget 
to do that.
