FWIW I've never used NSConnection, but in the following quick and dirty code it
did not retain the delegate I gave it.
TestDelegate * aTestDelegate = [[[TestDelegate alloc] init]
autorelease];
NSConnection * aConn = [[NSConnection alloc] initWithReceivePort:nil
sendPort:nil];
[aConn setDelegate:aTestDelegate];
The TestDelegate object got dealloced despite being the NSConnection's delegate.

I think there is at least one class that breaks the rule about not retaining
delegates (and is documented accordingly). I forget which it is and I don't
have time to search for it, but it doesn't seem to be NSConnection.
