test case

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_2; en-us)
AppleWebKit/531.21.8 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.4 Safari/531.21.10

Taking several pictures with the camera on an iPhone 3G running sdk 3.1.2
causes the application to leak memory (based upon watching the process in
instruments) and crash after 5 pictures have been taken if you set the Delegate
on the UIImagePickerController. I tried with both creating and disposing a new
UIImagePickerController each time, as well as using the same one. The test case
uses the latter approach. Crash doesn't happen if I do an image.Dispose in the
Delegate method. There was an apple bug with this controller leaking in 2.2,
which required using the same instance as a work-around, but it has allegedly
been fixed by apple as of 3.0.

Here's a related link from stackoverflow:

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Take several pictures using attached test case
2. App crashes on picture #6 when using iPhone 3g with 3.1.2
Actual Results:  
memory leaks and app crashes

Expected Results:  
no memory leaking or crashing
