Maybe it's a good idea to ask that kind of questions at

address@hidden

http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/objc-language

that is Apple's list solely for ObjC and ObjC++ *language* topics:  
"The ObjC-Language mailing list is offered for developers and  
interested parties in the language development community to discuss  
design and implementation of the core Objective-C and Objective-C++  
languages and runtimes, as used both at Apple and elsewhere."

There are several "runtime wranglers" of Apple subscribed to that  
list who surely can answer such questions
