Hi Fred, I wasnt sure either but it looks safer to me like when there
is something to do with setXXX would automatically match _xXX ivar
(could that be the reason GSNibLoading.h has 2 versions of
superview?). And things should always be spelled right, the code that
could suggest someone to type subViews or superView and vice versa in
their code simply shouldnt exist. So I wonder what is a good reason
to keep it that way? Cheer, Banlu

This aren't exactly convincing arguments, still the code would look nicer with correct spelling. The main problem will be to find a point in time where to do the changes in gui and Gorm simultaneously. Greg is planing to do a Gorm release soon, but there is no gui release in sight. We should wait until after the Gorm release and apply the patch then. Hopefully there aren't too many applications that use these ivars directly.
