It's easier to just use the __weak attribute, if you're using ARC:

__weak Foo *weakRef = self;
^() = {
        Foo *wself = weakRef;
        // wself may be nil, that's cool because we only want to doStuff if 
'self' is still around.
        [wself doStuff];
}

Still, I think this is what Oleg called "jumping through hoops". You and I just 
don't think it's a very significant hoop :)
