You're right, not that helpful. I'm going to resurrect an old PPC laptop with a mostly busted display and do screen sharing to run it. With that I should be able to recreate your environment and figure out what is going on. I have some other immediate obligations so it may take me 2 or 3 weeks to resolve this, but I'll get to it asap and send email when it's fixed.

Although I tested that by removing the 10.6 methods and making sure that everything worked; something might have broken since I first tested it.

Most of this worked on my system before I upgraded to 10.6 last summer, but who knows what I did to break things since then.

>>> Check the console log for any messages there and let me know if you see anything interesting; you usually will when things crash (use the Console application found in /Application/Utilities). The code depends on the NIB for the window and given that yours hung when you tried to open a window it's possible that the format of the NIB changed and the newer version caused a problem on your system (I was actually a victim of that with a NIB generated by somebody else once).
>>>
>>> If console messages lead us in that direction, then one thing we might try is for me to send the nib in .xib format and let someone using 10.5 see if that will open in InterfaceBuilder (it might not). If it did, they could then save it as a .nib. One caveat here is that whoever does this would need to have also built my lisp-controller IB plugin and installed it. That's pretty much mandatory anyway if you want to use the tools going forward. That process is documented in the "LispController Ref" document (either pdf or rtfd versions). If somebody wants to try that on a 10.5 system, please send me email privately and I'll send the .xib version to try. If that all works I'll check in .xib versions of all my NIB files and recommend that people convert them for earlier OS versions.
