I'm debugging the NSSound stuff and have run into a bit of a problem with
memory management and the whole RETAIN/RELEASE stuff... I'm sure my probably
has do to with being a novice.

Anyway, in the -dealloc method of NSSound I call RELEASE(_data) and right
after it [nameDict removeObjectForKey: _name].  The dictionary nameDict
contains as a key the sound name and as a value the NSSound object
associated with it.  Well, whenever this method is called it will go ahead
and call NSSound's -dealloc again which in turn sends another call out to
RELEASE(_data).  As you can imagine it blows up at this point.

So my question is:  Would adding a RETAIN(self) just before the call to
[nameDict removeObjectForKey: _name] solve this issue?  Anything else?  This
seems to do the trick, but I'm wondering if it's correct.

Thanks
Stefan
