i've experienced crashes on OSX too and it's difficult to find what's wrong because i never managed to make it produce core files and analyze them with a debugger. that's a tough job..
Actually the way I found that works on OSX is to turn GDB on _before_ the crash happens. You can do this either by first starting GDB and then running Pd inside of it (e.g.: commands "file", "run"), or by running Pd first and then giving its PID to GDB (the --pid switch or the "attach" command or whatever)
I don't recall having luck with coredumps (but I'm not completely sure)
(note: I'm running OSX 10.2.8)
