Summary:  Hang on +dictionaryWithContentsOfURL:

Original Submission:  Using the attached program, I'm experiencing a hang when 
calling +dictionaryWithContentsOfURL:. The URL contains a serialized property 
list, with one key/value pair: Foo = Bar; .. OSX reads it fine. Each time I run 
it through gdb, and then kill it (sometimes after a few seconds, sometimes 
several minutes pass before I kill it), it always ends up in a different 
location. However, it does share one thing in common, in each instances where I 
break out of the program and examine the backtrace, everything is the same 
until the next call after -[NSRunLoop limitDateForMode:] (any that come after 
that, could be as shown below, or NSDefaultMallocZone(), etc). Output of 'bt' 
from one instance when I stopped it (see note above) is below:

System is a FreeBSD 5.2.1 system, have only tested this with apple's Foundation 
on osx, and GNUstep's on FreeBSD. Works on apples, doesn't on GNUsteps.
