Unless there is some special runtime magic going on, this seems not
absolutely safe. Your '[self release]' is going to eventually lead
to a call of '[super dealloc]' and theoretically you can't safely
call the superclass's dealloc if you haven't called a designated
superclass initializer, because you don't know what the superclass's
dealloc expects its initializer to have already done.
Ah, I hadn't thought of that -- I should have looked more closely at
your code.
