Initial Code 
//CategoryBugHack.h
#define FIX_CATEGORY_BUG(name) @interface FIX_CATEGORY_BUG##name @end @implementation FIX_CATEGORY_BUG##name @end
Then the category .h/.m ...

//NSStringCategory.h
@interface NSString (MyAdditions)
// etc, etc
@end

//NSStringCategory.m
#import "CategoryBugHack.h"

                                        Initial Description
                                        

                                    

                                    
There seems to be an bugrelated to static libraries with an implementation file that contains ONLY implementations of category methods. The FIX_CATEGORY_BUG macro basically just expands to define an interface and implementation of that interface with no methods, just to force something into the .m file that isn't a category.
