Any chance of getting rid of the all_load requirement for the iOS framework?

The fix is basically: 

/** 
 * Add this macro to the end of each category addition implementation, so we don't have to use -all_load 
 * or -force_load to load object files from static libraries that only contain categories and no classes. 
 * See http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#qa/qa2006/qa1490.html for more info. 
 */ 
#define TT_FIX_CATEGORY_BUG(name) 

@interface TT_FIX_CATEGORY_BUG_##name 

@end 

@implementation TT_FIX_CATEGORY_BUG_##name 

@end 

Then the macro is added to each category. 

Hopefully, this info can point you in the right direction.

Just thinking off the top of my head, there is probably a way to declare a pre-processor macro that can handle this type of situation. I'll do some trial-and-error and get back to you once I have a patch for your problem.
