It really is, if you use gdb to check where temacs failed.

The change to make is to add an additional comparison 

  || strncmp (sectp->sectname, "__cfstring", 16) == 0

to the following comparison in unexmacosx.c (copy_data_segment).

      ... 
      else if (strncmp (sectp->sectname, "__la_symbol_ptr", 16) == 0
	       || strncmp (sectp->sectname, "__nl_symbol_ptr", 16) == 0
	       || strncmp (sectp->sectname, "__dyld", 16) == 0
	       || strncmp (sectp->sectname, "__const", 16) == 0)

Would appreciate it if you can report the result to the list, for the
benefit of those who are thinking about installing the new developer
tools.
