Which frame are you in when you try to read the register (the top frame, or 
some other frame)? What does `register read rdi` display in the top frame?

objc_msgSend_corrupt_cache_error is trying to print some diagnostic info before 
crashing. You should usually debug it as if it were a crash in objc_msgSend 
itself: zombies, guard malloc, etc. The contents of the diagnostics will 
occasionally offer clues that the object was valid but the class was hit by a 
memory smasher.

In this case objc_msgSend_corrupt_cache_error is itself crashing while trying 
to decode the data, which doesn't help distinguish "good object" from "bad 
object".
