I was hoping for somebody else to answer this. There are different subclasses
that provide the implementation for NSString, most importantly GSString. Within
an Obj-C application NSString in itself is never instantiated. The problem you
are facing is that your non Obj-C code may try to instantiate an NSString
object. Just stick to the [[NSString alloc] init] pattern or get your
strings from one of the factory methods.
Hope this helps,
