Details:

When I call [NSPasteboard generalPasteboard] I get back different instances
each time (or nearly every time). I believe this may be related to the fact
that I'm accessing the pasteboard from multiple threads. When I receive a new
instance, the previously returned instance is no longer valid, and sending a
message to it causes a crash (segmentation fault).

If necessary, I could consider rewriting parts of my application to try to
access the pasteboard only in the main thread, but I'd really rather not. It
works fine as it is in OS X.
