And that the Obj-C versions of the prototypes are in the guide, which hasn’t 
been updated for Swift.

Actually, that’s what happened, but only as I was typing in my first guess.  It 
was the same except I mapped, based on the Swift w/ Cocoa & Obj-C guide, the 
“id *” in the KVC guide to a “UnsafeMutablePointer<AnyObject>”.  Anyone know 
why it’s different?
