	an object is autoreleased without a pool being present.
	This should avoid many mistakes by newbies who don't understand
	the retain/release/autorelease mechanism (perhaps it'll encourage

	in the structure directly to avoid the function-call overhead as this
	function was being called LOTS of times.  Only a tiny performance
	improvement - but every little helps.
