[Sparkle] Plan to support garbage collection?

Hi

I have tried this again but unfortunately it does not seem to have
done the trick. I checked the latest trunk out and compiled it
successfully but when including that framework in my app I still get
told that Sparkle.framework "was not compiled with -fobjc-gc or
-fobjc-gc-only"

I opened up the Sparkle xcodeproj and checked the options, when I
check the GC options for the Sparkle framework target it says
"Multiple Values" which is strange as I am not sure how you can have
multiple values for one target.

Switching the GC options to "Supported" for the framework, I get the
original errors I was getting yesterday[1]. It seems to be complaining
about _objc_assign_ivar and _objc_assign_global being used. This is
not referenced anywhere in the source, I am hitting a dead end really
as I am fairly new to Cocoa and ObjC.
