title: Does NSLog'ing something alter its retain count? Because I am slowly going insane here
body: <p>Further to this question: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3576724/nsrunloop-is-receiving-a-strange-selector-possible-race-condition-tomfoolery">NSRunLoop is receiving a strange selector; possible race condition tomfoolery?</a> - where it was discovered that a UIGestureRecognizer was being deallocated and then receiving a message, I printed out the address of one of my GRs in order to see if it was the one being reported by zombies.</p>
  
  <p>With the print message in the code, I can no longer cause the crash I was originally looking for. Removing the print message, it seems I can cause it again.</p>
  
  <p>Since we're dealing with a deallocation/retain/release problem, can anyone tell me if it's possible that printing out this object is causing it to be referenced, thus sparing it from deallocation? And if so, what does that tell me about my original problem? Too many release's? Release too early?</p>
