From: Alexander Barabash <alexander_barab...@mentor.com>
In the old implementation, if the new value of the property links
to the same object, as the old value, that object is first unref-ed,
and then ref-ed. This leads to unintended deinitialization of that object.
In the new implementation, this is fixed.
