There are a number of Segmentation Fault 11 posts, but none seem to answer my question:
I've posted the code for the simple test application previously, but is provided for completeness. Windows 10, Delphi 10.2.3 with OSX High Sierra 10.13.6 and Xcode 9.4.1.
The HOST:

if b then
showmessage('Say Hello OK - LOCAL')
else
showmessage('Say Hello Failed - LOCAL');
end;
procedure TfDylibTest.FormClose(Sender: TObject; var Action: TCloseAction);
begin
showmessage('[Test App] onClose');
end;
procedure TfDylibTest.FormCloseQuery(Sender: TObject; var CanClose: Boolean);
begin

end;
initialization
showmessage('[Test App] Initialization'); <<<<-- THIS IS EXECUTED
finalization
showmessage('[Test App] Finalization'); <<<<-- THIS IS NOT EXECUTED
end.
And the DYLIB:
unit uTestDLL;
interface
uses
System.Diagnostics,
System.Classes;
// External functions and procedures
{$IFDEF MSWINDOWS}
function say_Hello(Hello: string; out ReturnString: string): boolean; stdcall; forward;
{$ENDIF MSWINDOWS}
{$IFDEF MACOS}
function _say_Hello(Hello: string; out ReturnString: string): boolean; cdecl; forward;
{$ENDIF MACOS}
exports
{$IFDEF MSWINDOWS}
say_Hello;
{$ENDIF MSWINDOWS}
{$IFDEF MACOS}
_say_Hello;
{$ENDIF MACOS}
Implementation
{$IFDEF MSWINDOWS}
function say_Hello(Hello: string; out ReturnString: string): boolean; stdcall; export;
{$ENDIF MSWINDOWS}
{$IFDEF MACOS}
function _say_Hello(Hello: string; out ReturnString: string): boolean; cdecl; export;
{$ENDIF MACOS}
begin
{$IFDEF MSWINDOWS}
ReturnString := 'Windows DLL, Received: ' + Hello;
{$ENDIF MSWINDOWS}
{$IFDEF MACOS}
ReturnString := 'macOS DYLIB, Received: ' + Hello;
{$ENDIF MACOS}
Result := True;
end;
end.
Basically a function in a DYLIB is passed a string parameter, it returns TRUE with an OUT variable of another string which proves that the data went into the DYLIB function and returned out.
I have simple showmessage() statements in the calling application for things like onCloseQuery and onClose etc, these all show, everything WORKS as it should until the application closes(onCloseQuery executed, onClose executed, and about half a second to a second after everything shuts down the problem report pops up). Note that the Initialisation Section IS executed, but the Finalization Section is NOT executed (although it is executed when running in Win32 mode). I've put the google drive link to the error log. OSX Problem Report
When I look at the stack trace, there are none of my two files (DylibTest and libpTesDLL.DYLIB) mentioned, it's all RTL/system units. I've googled Seg Fault 11 and searched the forum, but nothing seems related.
I'd appreciate any advice with how I could proceed?
