GSAutoreleasedMemory is a private class whose instances are used to  
wrap  an area of memory on the heap which is to be freed when the  
enclosing autorelease pool is deallocated.  It should be impossible  
for this to be leaked unless you are running without an autorelease  
pool... in which case you should get lots of warning messages.  Are  
you sure you are not misinterpreting things?
