Way back in 2005 in commit r8412, David Harrison added this line of code to WebCore/kwq/KWQAccObject.mm that was never changed to use RetainPtr<>:

    NSMutableAttributedString *attrString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] init];

This lack of RetainPtr<> caused a leak when Darin landed a fix for Bug 209129.

I fixed the leak in Bug 209932 by moving an early return, but Darin was curious about why this variable had never been converted:
