This is really wierd.  

Try

(gdb) p NXPrimaryPboard

and if it doesn't print 0:

(gdb) po NXPrimaryPboard

I don't quite understand what is going on here, but I'm inclined to fix the 
code as it should be and check it in.  I think Eli was correct, the pb = 0 is 
the error.

I have read up on pasteboardWithName and it should not return NULL on an 
unknown string.  It may return NULL if the string argument is NULL.  That kind 
of assumes symbol_to_nsstring returns NULL as Eli suggested.  Under -nw, I 
guess x-open-connection is not called so NXPrimaryPboard never gets 
initialized.  But you said this was a graphical session or did I misunderstand 
that?
