Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the crash on iOS 8.4 with mupen64plus dynarec enabled immediately after loading a game, then compare that path with the working pcsx_rearmed configuration. Done means RetroArch no longer crashes in the reported setup.
