+#if !USE_OBJC

+// For CF functions with 'Get' semantics, the compiler currently assumes that
+// the result is autoreleased and must be retained. It does so on all platforms
+// by emitting a call to objc_retainAutoreleasedReturnValue. On Darwin, this is
+// implemented by the ObjC runtime. On non-ObjC platforms, there is no runtime,
+// and therefore we have to stub it out here ourselves. The compiler will
+// eventually call swift_release to balance the retain below. This is a
+// workaround until the compiler no longer emits this callout on non-ObjC
+// platforms.
