"-[NSBundle initWithURL:]: nil URL argument" exception

[RJVB]

I think this line be the source of log messages like this:

This is on OS X 10.9.5 .

I have no idea why a system utility would raise that exception; I'm also seeing it when I start a Wine application (again, no idea why) and in general for any Cocoa application that I start via a symlink to its bundleexec.
