> It seems like there is some scenario in which the native protocol method tables get mixed up when you are using both binary and compact protocol's native implementations. In the cases I've seen, this leads to a segfault in compact protocol when it can't find some ivar it needs. However, there's no telling for certain if it does not also silently corrupt the data being written as binary protocol at the same time.
> I will post a script that produces this exception soon.
