Is this still an issue?

Yes, I can reproduce this. I've tried all four graphics drivers and they all do the same thing, in basically the same place inside Metal but taking different routes to get there.

Interestingly both the HW and non-HW cores crash similarly.

If I run in Xcode with "Metal Shader Validation" turned on, it doesn't crash and doesn't give any warnings.

And it works fine on latest iOS, so that's not going to give any clues either.

Hm, there are other issues with this core as well: the recompiler seems to cause it to hang indefinitely at start; and it can't be dlopen()'ed a second time.

I get a very similar crash report. Seems to crash no matter what video driver I use. Interestingly though: for me, this problem only began some time after around February 15. I had used the Beetle PSX core previously, and it worked fine.

Oh, is it valuable to also see the log file RetroArch generates?
