FYI: Blocks are a new feature in Objective-C (and C) being introduced as part of Snow Leopard, roughly equivalent to Smalltalk blocks (but a bit less flexible).
We have an implementation of a blocks runtime (minus support for GC) in Étoilé's ObjectiveC2.framework, but now Apple has released theirs under a BSD-style license.
