OS X El Captain, Xcode 7.01.

When I tried to class-dump a PreferencesBundle or Framework under ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/iOS DeviceSupport/7.1.1 (11D201)/Symbols/System/Library/, I got such an error:

pwd
/Users/papillon/Library/Developer/Xcode/iOS DeviceSupport/7.1.1 (11D201)/Symbols/System/Library/PreferenceBundles/MobilePhoneSettings.bundle
$: class-dump MobilePhoneSettings
2015-10-06 16:10:59.492 class-dump[98015:2289687] Error: Cannot find offset for address 0x3a546a04 in dataOffsetForAddress:

pwd
/Users/papillon/Library/Developer/Xcode/iOS DeviceSupport/7.1.1 (11D201)/Symbols/System/Library/Frameworks/AVFoundation.framework
$: class-dump AVFoundation

Similar issue here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3715919/class-dump-gives-error-error-cannot-find-offset-for-address-in-dataoffset-for but it does not work for me.

Any ideas?

class-dump do work with the executables (e.g., /Applications/Preferences.app/Preferences) copied from an iOS device. So, maybe the binaries from ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/iOS DeviceSupport/7.1.1 (11D201)/Symbols/System/ is encrypted?

Seems that the built-in binaries are not encrypted:
$: otool -l libraries/System/Library/PreferenceBundles/MobilePhoneSettings.bundle/MobilePhoneSettings | grep LC_ENCRYPTION_INFO
$: otool -l Preferences | grep LC_ENCRYPTION_INFO
Even the App Store binaries are encrypted, class-dump is able to dump them, with meaningless obfuscated symbols.

Thoughts:
dyld_shared_cache is another malformed binary on iOS with shared __LINKEDIT(and many other stuff)so class-dump won’t work.
Maybe that’s the case for your situation
EDIT:
Or written in Swift
