Sounds like a bug to me.  While zones are *discouraged* (they're very 
definitely an advanced topic and easily misused), I don't think they're 
actually deprecated.

Anyway, the solution is to drop down a layer to Core Foundation.  You can make 
an allocator that will use an NSZone easily enough using CFAllocatorCreate(), 
then pass that into CFStringCreate() as the allocator argument.

Kind regards,

Alastair.
