Looks like the same error reported in issue 9:
#9
If so, the latest source has a fix applied. Can you building from source?

[Sir-Odie]

You can also try this client, it contains that fix: http://www.gm.fh-koeln.de/~linke/EL-Downloads/EL-MAC.zip

So, I needed to fix some things in the XCode file to get it to compile, yet it doesn't link to the default cal3d.framework from the official client. I got a linking error (no clue why, the symbols should be there).

Undefined symbols for architecture i386:

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

But: The Sir-Odie-Version works (at least as far as I tested it for now. It starts without a crash).
@Sir-Odie: Vielen dank und schöne Grüße an den Rhein!
