Failed to create CSSymbolicatorRef for phantomjs

[Jon Leighton]

Hi guys,

I've had a couple of people report issues with Poltergeist where they
get the following errors from PhantomJS:

4/20/12 11:32:42.672 PM ReportCrash: Failed to create CSSymbolicatorRef
for phantomjs[18040]
4/20/12 11:32:42.780 PM ReportCrash: Failed to create dSYM-less
CSSymbolicatorRef for phantomjs[18040]

Does anyone have an idea about what is causing this / how it might be
fixed? What should I ask them in order to get better debug information?
(I'm a Linux user, I know next to nothing about OS X...)

Thanks,
Jon

We need to freaking add a proper "debug mode" in PhantomJS. The very
fact that we use so little qDebug freaks me out...

Looks like memory error. Is there a reduced test case for this? That
would be helpful to narrow down the problem.

I haven't quite gotten it isolated yet but I've noticed that it's
consistently happening for me when phantom is retrieving a javascript
asset and the server responds with a 304 (this is via the rails asset
pipeline).
