I am the Mac guy for the ChemDraw (http://cambridgesoft.com) application and
plugins. I am trying to debug our plugins using the nightly build. The problem
is it will not even load. The load is failing on line 286 of
WebNetscapePluginPackage.m :
        if (!CFBundleLoadExecutable(cfBundle)) 
and the following is printed from the console. 

**** begin console output ******
2007-02-12 13:26:04.438 Safari[423] CFLog (21): Error loading
/Users/glenn/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/CS ChemDraw Pro.plugin/Contents/MacOS/CS
ChemDraw Pro:  error code 4, error number 0 (Symbol not found:
_objc_msgSend_fpret
  Referenced from: /Users/glenn/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/CS ChemDraw
Pro.plugin/Contents/MacOS/CS ChemDraw Pro
  Expected in:
/Users/glenn/WebKit/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Debug/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/WebKit
***** end console output *********

Our plugin uses elements of both Cocoa and Carbon. I doubt if our release
plugins have this problem as we have massively changed their structure for this
release.

If someone with authority to sign an NDA could get in touch with me, I could
see about getting them enrolled in our beta cycle.
