Strange debugger behavior

Hello,

I am trying to debug my program, and when it's crashing, instead of
stopping at the point in the source where it crashed, it does something I
haven't seen before.

A second window opens up as it crashes, and it's a second debug window with
all of the play,stop, and step controls. It says it's for a different
thread than my main window's thread. The code in the new window is
illegible, machine stuff from dylib or something.

If I close the new thread window, I have to kill the whole process.

How can I tell where my program is crashing? I am not aware of starting any
threads separate from my progam, and I'm barely aware of what that even
means, having multiple threads...

Thanks
Bint
