I've also had similar problem with printing Objective-C variables on Ubuntu 
12.04, and whatever-gdb-ships-with-12-04. I think my install has a post-3.2 
clang SVN, possibly post-3.3. I would suspect it's an incompatibility between 
libobjc2 and gdb/lldb, though it would be strange if David didn't see it.
