Empty Project memory leaks

I created an empty iPhone project in Xamarin Studio and when I profiled it with Instruments it said there were a bunch of leaks. This actually happens with any iOS project type I choose. When the Leaks function in Instruments shows leaks for a Xamarin app, does it simply mean that the garbage collector has not collected that memory? If so, how can I distinguish between memory that has yet to be collected from real memory leaks?

Thanks!
