The IORegistryEntry->getproperty() methods all return objects of type 
OSObject*.  The problem I have is that the kernel is continually 
crashing when I try to use this method.  I think I need to instantiate 
an object to hold the return value but OSObject is an abstract base 
class and hence cannot be directly instantiated.

So how does one handle/instantiate the OSObject so the kernel doesn't 
crash ?
