Currently CoreIPC doesn't let you send sync messages from a non-main thread. It should! In radar as <rdar://problem/9428034>

It appears that the logic to message to the main thread has made the synchronous keychain functions incompatible with synchronous XMLHttpRequest.

Makes resolving this somewhat more important. I see you fixed this already with a different runloop mode. Great! (It'd still be much better if CoreIPC supported this mode.)
