Xcode 8 build crash on iOS 9.2 and below

Question

When I build my app with Xcode 8 GM Seed and run it on an iOS 9.2 below device OR simulator, I get strange EXC_BAD_ACCESS crashes during app startup or a few seconds after

Answer 1

I was able to reproduce the problem and it does seem related to images in Asset Catalog. Filed a bug with Apple (with attached sample project)
