Shouldn't this code be causing an error at some point? And if not,
why not?
No, it should not. It is perfectly legal for autorelease pools to
release memory created by other objects. It would, however, cause a
crash if the pool was popped before the object with the number was
released, and you tried to access the number pointer. It would only
cause a runtime error instead of a crash if you had zombies turned on.
