I always start by trashing prefs, running OnyX & rebooting.
I know you aren't on an Intel Mac but I found this on Adobe U2U:
Question: Crashes with pathfinder
Is this a known bug? When I click on a pathfinder tool with two shapes selected, illustrator crashes. Anyone know how to stop this from happening?It is a known and much discussed problem with Intel Macs.
Answer:
The workaround is to open Illustrator. Close the Appearance palette. Quit Illustrator. Reopen Illustrator. You can now use the Pathfinder without crashing. Remember to close the Appearance palette before quitting Illustrator if you open it again.
