[libdispatch-dev] Static Analysis for leaks with dispatch_objects

[Mike Lewis]

Thanks.  I will surely file a bug.  In the meantime I think I'll just resort
to making a C++ wrapper for dispatch objects that will do reference counting
for me similar to shared_ptr or something similar to WebKit's RetainPtr [1].

Thanks,
Mike
