The docs for NSPointerArray say, in a big bold box right at the top:

> Important: NSPointerArray does not support weak references under Automatic 
> Reference Counting (ARC).

However, a [NSPointerArray weakObjectsPointerArray] does NULL an element that 
has been released through ARC; I can test this directly, and I've also been 
using NSPointerArray successfully to break retain cycles. So are the docs just 
lying (in a big bold box right at the top), or is this some other kind of weak 
reference (i.e. somehow weak, but not ARC-__weak)?
