iOS Application Will not Launch From Adhoc Distribution Because It can't find XCTest Framework

I made a post before about this problem, but since then I've been able to find some crash logs on some testers' devices.

Interestingly the count of crash logs on the device do not match the number of crashes, but still, this may be a clue.

Long story short, when I distribute my application to testers via TestFlight, then can't open the app: it closes before anything can happen (I know this because there are no TestFlight crash logs). All the on-device logs I've managed to find point to the same problem:

How in the world a breakpoint is getting triggered on a release build, I have no idea. I can't reproduce this while running the app from Xcode. I have removed XCTest framework from Xcode's 'Link Binary with Libraries' list. But it hasn't helped yet.

Has anyone come across a similar issue before?

UPDATE:

Someone has mentioned in the comments that this question may be a duplicate. I just want to point out that in the question linked, the OP has a stack trace, whereas in my case, the app is not launching at all and there is no trace in the logs.

you need to create new project in Xcode5, and copy all files to new project.
