Many thanks for the report.  This bug is release-critical because i386
is a release architecture.  Chances are that it affects other 32-bit
architectures, too.

This shows NSContstantString(instance) but never mind.

Could you please install gworkspace.app-dbgsym,
gworkspace-libs-dbgsym, libinspector0-dbgsym,
libgnustep-gui0.31-dbgsym, libgnustep-base1.30-dbgsym, libobjc4-dbgsym
and run GDB like this:

$ gdb GWorkspace
(gdb) break -[NSException raise]
Function "-[NSException raise]" not defined.
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n]) y
Breakpoint 1 (-[NSException raise]) pending
(gdb) r
...
(gdb) bt

And then post the backtrace you get?  Thanks!
