Issue setting an icon for a file path

Hi,

I have filed a bugreport on this, but just in case I am overlooking 
something:

When saving a file I set an icon on the file path:
[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] setIcon:theIcon forFile:path 
options:NSExcludeQuickDrawElementsIconCreationOption];

This works fine the first time in a session the document is saved. If 
I then make some changes and save again the same method results in a 
crash two calls down the line in _NSAddCompressedARGBIconFamilyElement:

-[NSWorksspace setIcon:forFile:option:]
_NSAddCompressedARGBIconFamilyElement

The icon and the file path appear to be valid at the time of the call 
to setIcon:forFile:options:. The icon is created by locking focus on 
an NSImage and then drawing into it, and unlocking focus when done.

Is there anything in the above information which suggests I am making 
a mistake, or is there a known bug and is there a work-around?

Kind regards,
António Nunes
