Workaround for framework leaks?

I have found some leaks in the system frameworks. I know exactly what property is over-retained when a new object of certain classes is created. Now my question is whether it is possible using this knowledge to avoid this leak? I could imagine to just send a release to the property. However that may be dangerous, because when Apple fixes the bug in the future that would lead to an over-release (and a crash). So would there be some way to avoid that?

Thanks,
