Synergy 1.5 crash (OSX 10.6.8)

THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ THIS

I recently installed Synergy 1.5 r2278 (for Mac OSX 10.6.8) and was using it fine for most of the day, then it decided to stop working (the only thing I changed systemwise was the screensaver - and then after it started crashing disabled it - to see if it would resolve).

When I start Synergy (on the Mac - Client) it says:

after about 5 seconds (and successfully connecting to the Server)

"synergyc quit unexpectedly" Here is the crash log (w/ binery info removed - too long for post requirements)
