I get a slightly different crash log, but it crashes for me, too, 
whenever I try to edit a *new* template (the "Normal" template seems to 
work).

Unfortunately, scribus-1.1.2 is not very usable on Mac OSX right now, 
apart from these crashes:

- Many fonts show up in the menus, but don't have any glyphs. Several 
people have observed this, but I don't know of any clear pattern. It is 
not even completely deterministic. I don't know how to debug this.

- The color endian problem for the screen display is not completely 
solved: Text characters still have an outer contour in the wrong color. 
Here is a picture that shows this phenomenon

The print preview is OK.

The older version 1.0.1 works fine.
