It's a simple matter of setting an environment variable on your executable (NSZombieEnabled = YES), and then running/debugging your app as normal.If you message a zombie, your app will crash/break to debugger and NSLog a message for you.

For more information, check out this CocoaDev page: http://www.cocoadev.com/index.pl?NSZombieEnabled

Also, this process will become much easier with the release of 10.6 and the next versions of Xcode and Instruments. Just saying'. =)
