The release notes for XCode 4, Beta 7, state: "GPU debugger frame captures of iOS Metal apps no longer crash Xcode. (21741213)".
Contrary to this, I am still experiencing crashing when attempting to use Capture GPU Frame as I had in the previous beta.
This has been a major pain in my work so I'm hoping someone can provide some insight into a fix or workaround.

My crash logs:
The forums are responding with a cryptic error message when I try to post my logs ("apple.discussions.antispam.content.message") but here is some of it... I can post more if necessary.

HI Bradley,
Could you file a radar & attach your logs there? If you're able to attach a repro case as well that would be invaluable.
Cheers,
Seth.
