[8u40]: Review request for RT-39489: Latest 10.10.2 beta update causes NSTouch exceptions continually

[Mike Hearn]

Ugh. Seems this also nukes Chrome and Blender.

I really wonder how an update that hard crashes Chrome can actually even
ship to beta. That seems like a total absence of app compat testing.

Seems like the issue is Apple changed an internal API but didn't update all
their own callers? So a bug in AppKit?
