You are right - this is my fault.

First, in the Java context:
CG* should not be NSObject derivative. It is still an Object derivative though.

In native context:
CG* *is* an Object since it is re-implemented here and is a wrapper for native CG* references.

In C you mean?

NSObject in Java context *is* an Object, and as such, shouldn't NSObject and Object stay synonyms?
