GC and backward compatibility?

Subject: GC and backward compatibility?

Now that we can talk about Xcode 3, I have a question that's been burning me up for a while now.

Let's say I make a framework that uses the usual retain/release mechanisms, but I want to use GC anyway. So I turn on GC support, but do not turn on the "GC required" option.

What effect does this have on the framework's backward compatibility? Will the framework still be loadable in applications running under Tiger? Panther? Earlier?

Now what if the application uses GC? What then?
