You mentioned you're using a pthread for the updates, so from what I understand creating/disposing of Rb objects from the DrawScene event might be a very bad thing to do on Mac OS X. I moved the scene drawing into an Rb Timer as a test and it ran fine, so the DrawScene pthread is very suspect at this point.

I wonder why I haven't had any crash... anyway, I agree that I should use extra caution with my current implementation...

Are you using a single-processor Mac? If I turn off one of my CPU's with CHUD tools it doesn't crash (at least not immediately, I haven't left it running for very long) but this reinforces that assumption that this is indeed a multithreading problem.
