I just thought I'd people a heads up here. While it could be isolated, on my 2.8 MBP 15" Unibody, while 10.6.0 had been working well, now under 10.6.1 Mail, iCal and iChat all hang on application launch. All three crash reports show:
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: 0x000000000000000d, 0x0000000000000000
Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread
Each of these are the 64-bit apps. I'm looking for a solution, but if anyone is aware of what's going on here, I'd love to know!

Did you have any Mail plugins installed ?
Mail disabled some of my plugins (Dock Star, Mail Act-on, Mail Tags).
Perhaps it didn't identify broken plugins of yours and hence hangs when starting up.

Good. And to think a member here recently knocked that advice as on par with repair permissions.

Heh, yeah, that was great advice. I of course rebooted (tried repair permissions just for fun) and a few other things before going here.

Is it just me ?
It seems like, recently, reapplying the updates seems to be necessary much more often than in the past.
With past OS X installs, I have never seen as many people having issues that were resolved by simply re-applying the updater.

I don't think it's just you. Fortunately though, the installers now better handle re-installation it seems, and that goes for 10.6 as well. If a 10.6 install doesn't complete, the installer now recognizes that 10.6 is partially installed and asks if you wish to resume.

10.6.1 is more buggy than 10.6~!
My MBP17 is beach-ball-freezing randomly... and i ONLY had 3 apps opened (Safari, Adium, Transmission).

I get the same feeling. This was done in a rush, w/o good quality controls.
If you look at the Apple Discussion forums, you find countless threads regarding issues with 10.6.1.
For shame, Apple.

Absolutely zero problems here. I guess YMMV.

There is a bug in SL for AddressBook groups. For example a group I had - All contacts that have no group - would cause anything that enumerated those groups (Mail, AB, iCal) to take 2-3 minutes to launch.
Its a known SL bug and the only CURRENT fix is to delete that group. I believe if you recreate the group all is fine and its only on upgrade that it breaks.
