Crash in openURL: Possible Facebook SDK bug in iOS 9

Context

I am using the FBSDKLoginButton with my app. I am on Xcode 7.0 and my iPhone is running iOS 9 beta 3. I followed every step showed by Facebook (creating the app, etc) and followed the steps for adding the button as in https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/ios#login-button.

As I am on iOS 9, I had to add some minor changes to the info.plist file to enable cross-app opening:

<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
    <string>fbauth</string>
</array>

and since the openURL method from UIAppDelegate changed on iOS9,I changed the openURL code snippet Facebook provides from this:

func application(application: UIApplication,
    openURL url: NSURL,
    sourceApplication: String?,
    annotation: AnyObject?) -> Bool {
        return FBSDKApplicationDelegate.sharedInstance().application(
            application,
            openURL: url,
            sourceApplication: sourceApplication,
            annotation: annotation)
}

to this:

func application(app: UIApplication, openURL url: NSURL, options: [String : AnyObject]) -> Bool
{
        return FBSDKApplicationDelegate.sharedInstance().application(
            app,
            openURL: url,
            sourceApplication: options["UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsSourceApplicationKey"] as? String,
            annotation: nil)
}

Issue & Question So my issue here is that even though everything works perfectly (I mean the whole login button process plus getting user data from the Facebook graph) when I run the app from the simulator or directly on my iPhone from XCode, I do have a problem when I run the same process with my application but this time installed from an archive. I have tried either from an OTA app or an app installed with the Xcode organizer using the archive's IPA file. In both case I get a crash when Facebook returns back to my app. Since I cannot be using Xcode's debugger all I have is a crash log.

It seems that when Facebook calls back my app the crash occurs in the openURL method of my AppDelegate. As mentioned above there are two ways to code this method as of iOS9 and I tried both. If I remove the Facebook code inside the method then I do not crash but I do not log In. So the line that crashes is Facebook's line. And it only crashes if my app was installed from an archive. Any ideas? Maybe Facebook's SDK has a bug on this particular case?

I have found my answer

Looks like it was a Release Mode only issue. By enabling Xcode to run Release builds I was able to debug my issue. It was caused by the parameter sourceApplication that apparently needs to be unwrapped when in release mode. No idea why, but at least I got it to work.

func application(app: UIApplication, openURL url: NSURL, options: [String : AnyObject]) -> Bool
{
        return FBSDKApplicationDelegate.sharedInstance().application(
            app,
            openURL: url,
            sourceApplication: options["UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsSourceApplicationKey"] as! String,
            annotation: nil)
}
