Yes. It's 2023 (happy new year, btw). Use an up to date compiler and declare
the delegate as a zeroing weak reference.

Apart from that, the problem is that you've closed the editor window and the
editor object has been released and deallocated, but the editor window still
exists and is still receiving events after the window has been closed. While
-[NSWindow sendEvent:] ignores most events for closed windows is does still
accept NSAppKitDefined events (for instance, your window manager could post a
window moved event; I've seen that happening under Gnome for windows after they
were closed). If for some reason the cursor rectangles of that window have been
invalidated, sendEvent: will reset all cursor rectangles. Now if the window
happens to contain a split view, that split view will ask its delegate for the
size of the divider. Unfortunately, though, in this case the delegate has been
deallocated (without the relevant pointer being reset) and hence the program
crashes.
I'm not really familiar with the cursor rectangle code, but it seems to me that
there is no point resetting the cursor rectangles after a window has been
closed. With a little bit of luck, just changing the condition
!_f.cursor_rects_valid
in line 4071 of NSWindow.m (fairly at the beginning of the -[NSWindow
sendEvent:] method) into
!_f.cursor_rects_valid && !_f.has_closed
should be enough to fix this issue. And hopefully it doesn't break anything for
windows that aren't released upon closing. But it's worth reviewing that the
cursor rectangles will be reset when such a window is opened again.
