Answer 1

I ran into this exact problem at WWDC. I spoke to a couple of Apple engineers who told me this is a bug in the SDK caused by moving some symbols between CFNetwork & Foundation, and that it would be resolved in the next release, due very soon. You can work around it in some cases by playing with the order frameworks are imported, but it won't always work.
