To be precise, the compiler boils it down into a function call that returns a member of a private NSString subclass. There's a compiler option to let you choose the class to use for constant strings.

I thought it simply compiled a direct referene to a statically allocated instane of said NSString subclass. Has this changed, or am I simply delusional?

I may be mistaken on the specifics. I do know that there's a compiler switch to select the constant string class, though.

Yes, definitely, and it is one of the things you have to do to get GNUstep to compile. And yes, I was really just nit-picking... ;-)
