I'd also recommend:

- Run the static analyser on your code.  This will pick up unbalanced releases.
- Enabling zombines - this will print a message telling you when you send a 
message to a dealloc'd object.
- Once you know what its class is, add a breakpoint in its dealloc method and 
see where it is being released.  Also add a custom allocWithZone: (that just 
calls super) and a breakpoint on it so that you can see where it is created.
