I just wanted to toss my 2 cents in that I'm having the same problem
on a G4 iBook running OSX 10.3 and Xcode 1.5.  I've tried both the
pre-compiled 0.20-fixes linked from the wiki, and compiling it myself.
 My crashdump is the same for threads 0 and 1, but I don't have a
thread 2.  I can post it if it'll help.

Mine also crashes exactly the same way.  The frontend main menu comes
up (Live TV, Media Library, etc).  As long as you don't press any
keys, it'll happily sit there.  As soon as you press any key, the
beachball starts spinning, and you get the "The application
mythfrontend has unexpectedly quit" message.


The terminal output from mythfrontend looks like this:
