           Summary: String::createCFString() returns a non-retained empty
                    string
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P4
         Component: Platform
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: ap at webkit.org


If String is null, createCFString() returns CFSTR(""). According to CFString.h,
'CFSTR(), not being a "Copy" or "Create" function, does not return a new
reference for you. So, you should not release the return value.'

I am not aware of any practical issues caused by this, but we should probably
comply.
