[iOS 4.2] NSDateFormatter -init not available in iOS > 3.2 - how to init then?

Hello,

according to the iOS 4.2 NSDateFormatter class documentation, the -init method is available in iOS 2.0 through iOS 3.2, but it does not offer an alternative method to initialize a newly allocated date formatter (or, if it does, I missed it on repeated readings of the docs). How then?

I went ahead and tried -init anyway and, sure enough, a problem arises:

malloc: *** error for object 0x4d6c9b0: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

Doing as suggested, I see the following call stack:

#0	0x916d1f82 in malloc_error_break
#1	0x915e1b63 in free
#2	0x0005aa09 in icu::DateFormatSymbols::dispose
#3	0x0005a98c in icu::DateFormatSymbols::~DateFormatSymbols
#4	0x0005a8a6 in icu::SimpleDateFormat::~SimpleDateFormat
#5	0x01165b39 in __CFDateFormatterDeallocate
#6	0x010e9bcb in _CFRelease
#7	0x002963ac in -[NSDateFormatter _regenerateFormatter]
#8	0x0000315d in -[AppDelegate dateFormatter] at AppDelegate.m:144

And here's the -[AppDelegate dateFormatter] method I have:

- (NSDateFormatter*) dateFormatter;
{
    if (dateFormatter_ == nil)
    {
         dateFormatter_ = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];

        [dateFormatter_ setLocale:    self.localePtBr];
        [dateFormatter_ setDateStyle: NSDateFormatterShortStyle];
    }

    return dateFormatter_;
}

Thanks in advance.
