I recently had the same thing with an old stack I started working on.
I BZ'ed it because I thought it was a problem with 2.6. But then I saw
some comments about the breakpoint problem, I cleared the breakpoints,
and the program stopped quitting.

However, my current situation happens as soon as I launch Rev. I don't
open any stacks. I just launch Rev, go to the menu bar, click, and Rev
quits. Not just 2.6, but 2.5.1 also.

I'm wondering if there are some preference or system files that get
written when Rev is installed (OS X 10.4.1) outside of the Rev folder
that could be causing this. Because it still happens when I reinstall
Rev from scratch.

It's got to be some interaction with something else, because if I
switch to a different user account and run Rev (from the same
Application's folder) it works fine. So far I'm stumpped.
