Release build doesn't work

Question

Hello,
I have an app with dynamic forms, and one piece of functionality is the ability to copy all the values of the fields on a form, and paste them onto another form page.  This works perfectly when I run my app in the following ways:
1.     Run it from Flash Builder.
2.     Run it from Flash Builder in debug mode.
3.     Run the release build by opening the app in python with:
               import os
               os.system('/Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/MacOs/MyApp')
The coping and pasting of pages does not work when I run in the following ways:
1.     Run it by double clicking on the app in my /Applications folder.
2.     Run it in python with:
               import os
               os.popen('/Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/MacOs/MyApp')
3.      Start it in a terminal by typing:
               /Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/MacOs/MyApp
I have no idea how to debug this problem, does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Craig

Update:  I used try {} catch (){} to isolate the error.  It was a 1023 stack overflow error, meaning my recursive loop repeats too many times for the release build, but not--apparently--for the debug launcher.  So now I have to completely reconfigure my code.  Weak.
