According to my understanding of Cocoa, it does leak. You should call [self 
release], as otherwise the just created object (the object has already been 
created by [CLASS alloc] when init is being called) is never released 
otherwise. Further no other object that [super init] might create is released. 
My inits usually look like this:

- (id)initWithBool:(BOOL)ok
{
  self = [super init];
  if (self) {
    if (!ok) {
      [self release];
      self = nil;
     }
  }
  return self;
}
