Odd libobjc2 1.9 crash on Aarch64

[Patryk Laurent]

Hi,

I built GNUstep with libobjc2 1.9 with library combo ng-gnu-gnu on a Pine64 laptop. When running a demo program with ARC it *occasionally* but not always segfaults prior to reporting if ARC is enabled.  What could be going on?

Interestingly I was not able to get it to segfault *while* running lldb. But I ran lldb on a core dump and got what I've included below. 

Any advice on how to further diagnose this?

Thank you,

Patryk
