NSString drawInRect:withAttributes: causes 'unrecognized selector sent to instance ...'

I got something really strange: a method causes unrecognized selector sent to instance, but doesn't NSLog() anything at all.

I made a custom NSControl subclass, where I try to draw my custom cells like this:

- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect {
    NSLog(@"DrawRect entered!");
    [[NSColor grayColor] set];
    [NSBezierPath fillRect:[self bounds]];

    unsigned int i, count = [cells count];
    NSRect cellRect = NSMakeRect(0, 0, ([self bounds]).size.width, cellHeight);
    for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
        NSLog(@"Drawing cell %d at: %@", i, NSStringFromRect(cellRect));
        MKMenuCell *cell = [cells objectAtIndex:i];
        [cell drawWithFrame:cellRect inView:self];
        cellRect.origin.y += cellHeight;
    }
}

And -[MKMenuCell drawWithFrame:inView:]:

- (void)drawWithFrame:(NSRect)bounds inView:(NSView *)controlView {
    NSLog(@"-drawWithFrame:inView:");
    NSMutableDictionary *strAttribs = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
    [strAttribs setObject:[NSColor blackColor] forKey:NSFontAttributeName];
    [name drawInRect:bounds withAttributes:strAttribs]; // "unrecognized selector sent ..." is caused by this method call.
}

The output:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'NSException'

As you can see MKMenuCell's drawWithFrame:inView: is called. but the output from its NSLog() statement isn't displayed. What is happening here? How to solve it?

EDIT: I now realize, looking at the GDB output, the first time nothing goes wrong. This makes it even stranger.

The bad selector being sent, screenFontWithRenderingMode, is a method on NSFont. I'm betting that you shouldn't be setting a color for the value of the key NSFontAttributeName. You should probably give it a font.
