Your code looks like it should work, but it is complex enough that I
could be wrong.
If you don't call release, then TinyOS can't power down the ADC and
let the MCU drop into a lower power state. If you're not concerned
with idle draw, then this doesn't matter, but if you want a long node
lifetime, it does. Kevin's SOSP 2007 paper goes into the details.
