How has Memory Management changed in BREW 2.0?

In Brew 2.0 when an interface is released, and the reference count reaches 0, the memory is set to 0xfefefefe. In previous BREW versions, the memory was left in tact and assumed to be garbage, but if you did not set your pointer to NULL then you would still have a pointer to the memory.
