/*
 * This file replaces NSAutoreleasePool with OFAutoreleasePool when it is
 * linked.
 * This is done so there is no conflict because OFBlocks are used (blocks are
 * OFBlocks as soon as ObjFW is linked). An application expecting an NSBlock,
 * but getting an OFBlock because ObjFW is linked, would fail to autorelease
 * the block otherwise, as the block would be in an OFAutoreleasePool. By
 * replacing NSAutoreleasePool with OFAutoreleasePool, the application will
 * still properly free the autoreleased block.
 * With autorelease pools now being part of the runtime, this is not really
 * necessary anymore, as both, ObjFW and Foundation, use the runtime's pools if
 * available. However, this is kept for compatibility with older versions of
 * OS X, which don't ship with a runtime with autorelease pools.
