A GC-icon display is implemented with a child window on OS X. In some
OS X version prior to 10.10 (not sure which ones), screen
reconfigurations did not move child windows properly relative to
parent windows, so all child windows were reset after a screen change.
In 10.10, meanwhile, Mission Control can cause screen-change
notifications, and adding a child window to a Mission
Control-minimized fullscreened window will goes terribly wrong.
Fortunately, 10.10 seems to update child-window locations correctly on
screen reconfigurations, in which case the old workaround that hits
the new bug can be skipped.
Allocation rules:
* Use `as-objc-allocation' when creating a Cocoa object. When the
resulting reference becomes unreachable, the Cocoa object will be
released.
* Use `with-autorelease' in atomic mode around calls that autorelease
and where the release should take effect immediate. Do not create
an autorelease pool except in atomic mode.
* Other autoreleased objects may end up in the root pool installed by
"pool.rkt". The root pool is periodically destroyed and replaced;
call `queue-autorelease-flush' if you need to encurage replacement
of the pool. If you need to use an object that might be autoflushed,
be sure that you're in atomic mode.
