With ARC enabled, shouldn’t the Preprocessor insert retain/release/autorelease calls?
When I let Xcode generate a preprocessed file, none of those show up?

ARC happens at a different level than the C preprocessor. At the time the C preprocessor runs, there isn’t enough information to determine where to place the retain/release calls, because the preprocessor is just a textual substitution pass.
