Ok, I narrowed it down to udpsend in Pd-Extended 0.42.5 ...
Here's how to reproduce the startup saved state crash on Mac OSX 10.7:
1. open the udpsend help file and save it to your home dir
2. add this file to your startup commands: Pd-Extended->Preferences...->Startup..., add ~/udpsend-help.pd to the end of startup flags
3. Quit Pd-Extended with the udpsend-help file still open.
4. Pd-Extended should now crash after loading the patch windows.
I tried the same with udpreceive and netsend without any problems ...
Can someone else do this to confirm it's not my setup ... ?
Any thoughts Martin?

I tested this with Pd-Vanilla 0.43-0 and there are no problems. The patch windows come up nicely.
I tried to test it with a Pd-Extended-0.43.1autobuild but I keep getting load errors and can't open any patch windows :P Is there a more stable version somewhere?
You can hold Option when quitting (aka Cmd+Opt+Q ) to bypass the save state mechanism and delete any current states.
You can also disable the state saving by locking the state folder for Pd-Extended itself in ~/Library/Saved\ Application\ State/org.puredata.pd.wish.savedState/ through the Get Info dialog (CMD+I) ...

Since I've upgraded to Mac OSX 10.7 Lion, I've noticed Pd-extended 0.42.5 seemed to crash on startup sometimes, while other times it was fine. It finally dawned on me that OSX is trying to load the previous "saved state" since I had CMD-Q'd Pd with windows open. It automatically opens those windows at start. I assume pd is not yet ready for these and crashes due to some init order issue ...
If anyone else has noticed this, a quick fix is to delete the save state so you can open Pd again. Then make sure to close all windows before quitting the next time ... thanks for the "help" apple.
Commandline:
rm -rf ~/Library/Saved\ Application\ State/org.puredata.*
