Crash on Mac OS X

[timeless]

I usually run w7x64 in VirtualBox, but I sometimes run Maemo and OpenSolaris. Usually if I try to suspend Windows 7 or shut it down, I end up with an aborted item in my list instead of a saved system. I don't actually pay attention to when the logs are created because there's no ui indicating to me that a crash happened. "aborted" to me doesn't mean "oh, we crashed, you might care", it just means "oops".

(I have nearly 20 crashes with this stack)

os x logs from Crash Reporter

Please reopen if you observe the same crash with VBox 3.0.8.

3.0.8 log part 2

I'm still crashing in CFRetain, I think this is the right pair of logs, the first is the crash report, the second came from VirtualBox and i think based on the date it should have the related bits and show that i was running 3.0.8

Please rename it to something more understandable, like "VBox crashes on Mac OS X".

timeless, could you check if VBox 3.1.0 improved things here?

[timeless]

So far I've managed to save a couple of w7 sessions. it'll take me a few weeks before i'm comfortable saying things are better.

I'm getting a similar crash (backtrace looks identical) on 3.1.2. The guest OS is linux (FC7), host OS is 10.5.8. Crash reports VirtualBoxVM_2010-02-08-174748_tElektrum-MacBook-Pro.crash & VirtualBoxVM_2010-02-08-172557_tElektrum-MacBook-Pro.crash) attached.
