I'll have a look; it's not my own code, I'm just hunting down whatever bug causes this cast to fail (and as a result crash the app because failure isn't handled).
However, your suggestion would cause the dynamic_cast to fail everywhere, not just on OS X, right? It seems a bit far-fetched to disable virtual destructors on OS X ...
