[cfe-dev] CodeGen help for a new feature in ObjC

[Remy Demarest]

I'll think I'll just KISS it and to the retain before the body emission and the do the release after the body implementation.

In general, it is not possible to statically decide which use is the first use, and it is not possible to even dynamically decide which use is the last use.  For example, when do you want the retains and releases to happen in this code?
