GS Extensions and retain count problem

[Manuel Guesdon]

Hi, 

I had some trouble with GC* objects and found that after +alloc -init, their 
retain count seems strange.
I've attached a small program to test this.

doing a +new on  the following objects set a retainCount of 1:
NSObject
NSArray
NSMutableDictionary
GCObject

But for the following, it set a retain count of 0:
GCMutableArray
GCArray
GCDictionary

I can't see any reason in the code.
If you run the test app, do you get the same result (with debug=yes) ?
If yes, is it 'normal' ?

Thank you.

Manuel
