Details:


[NSAutoreleasePool -autoreleaseCount] seems to have a bug that causes it to
return too small values (usually zero with my test case).

I've found a fix that appears to correct the problem, although I haven't
tested it thoroughly. The fix is to remove the condition "&& released->count"
from this loop in the method:

...
  while (released && released->count)
    {
      count += released->count;
      released = released->next;
    }
...

I.e. the first line should become:
  while (released)

I don't know much about GNUstep internals, I just stumbled upon this fix
trying to figure out why my autorelease pool claimed to be empty when it
clearly wasn't.

The error occurs on Win32/MinGW, I haven't tried any other platforms.
