I tried to add an attachment to this but I couldn't. I can add them to
bugs I created myself. Is this the way it's supposed to work - seems a
bit odd if the only bugs I'm allowed to fix are the ones I reported.

There are two alternatives listed on http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSString_Class/DeprecationAppendix/AppendixADeprecatedAPI.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/NSString/lossyCString:
