Can someone confirm that the System Preferences application cannot load a
preference pane that is compiled with garbage collection?  Even linking to a
framework compiled with GC ³supported² causes System Prefs to reject my
preference pane (Give an error saying it cannot be loaded).  Turn off GC and
the pane loads fine.

I am sharing code between the PrefPane (which is fine using retain counts)
and a GC app (I just cannot make it work without GC, having been spoiled by
GC), and want to use a framework for the common pieces, but it seems like
the entire project has to be GC-free.

I have googled this and am surprised I haven¹t seen references to the issue.
Am I doing something wrong (other than not writing dual-mode code), or is
there a known incompatibility between GC and the System Preferences?
