I had a strange crash a few minutes ago. The crashreporter tried to open, then closed, and SL froze, forcing me to Force Quit it. Now every time I try to open the client, crashreporter tries to open as well, closes, and then SL suffers an "unexpected quit" error.

What the hell is going on?

Go to

users(the cottage in your finder)/library/application support

and delete the "Second Life" Folder.

This will reset everything (hrm...usually...you never know if the Lindens did not plant another nasty Mac bug...)

Actually, restarting worked. Still, kind of weird.

And I'd rather not delete that folder, since, you know, I have important logs in there and everything.

Edit: Now it's frozen again, and won't force quit.

Copy the logs. Delete the folder.

Better yet, create a separate folder in Documents for SL Logs and tell Preferences to put them there. That's what I did. No problems.
