Open Recent menu stopped working in my doc-based Mac app

Recently, when I open a document in my app, it just adds a blank line to the Open Recent submenu. Attempting to select that line produces an error alert saying "The document “(null)” could not be opened. The file doesn’t exist." However, the document does appear in the global Recent Items menu. I tried rebooting. I'm not subclassing NSDocumentController or doing anything weird about opening files. Ideas?

P.S. I tried logging in to a different account, and tried changing the bundle ID. Neither helped.

OK, it looks like the problem was that this private tool was not code signed at all. I had no idea that would affect Open Recent.
