to me that's understandable. I've never seen the point in ARC, too - until we 
switched a rather huge codebase to ARC. The increase in readability and clarity 
was extremely significant. Also, robustness increased dramatically. I was 
probably the biggest opponent to the whole conversion, as I considered it a 
waste of time and resources, but I'm totally impressed by the final result. 
It's now very clear to me why Apple is pushing in that direction and I really 
appreciate what David and others have done so far to bring it to GNUstep.

You might be right in your assumption that it's somehow CF-related. I don't see 
any problematic behaviour with NSStrings and the code in GSAvahiNetService 
looks good to me.


Cheers,
