Implementing finalize methods are actually quite rare; and even if you
do implement them, that won't prevent building for/running on 10.4.
I see that -finalize was available on 10.4 even though GC didn't
arrive until 10.5, so I would be able to call [super finalize]. I
guess Apple was planning ahead. :->
It's exceedingly unlike that whatever change you need to make will
render the code incompatible with 10.4.

Perfectly understandable. I'm just trying to assure you that the cases
in which you actually have to call GC-specific API is quite small, and
are usually relegated to edge-cases.
OK. Well, I guess I'll wait and see what changes I need to make to
support GC before I worry about this further. (See the post I'm about
to send in. :-> )
Thanks!
