Hi Patrick,
Yes it can still be built with gcc and I believe the Arch release
still uses
it so that it can use the default GNUstep base. From what I have
heard,
performance is better for the clang version.
Thank you for the answer.
May I ask why you want to continue building it with gcc rather than
clang?
The reason I ask is that I had been considering whether the game
should
become clang only to allow usage of Objective-C syntax improvements
in the
modern clang runtime.

My desktop project (AGNoStep) tends to propose as many apps it can.
Adding Oolite to Games collection is one target for the next release.
Also, one of my hardware target is the Raspberry Pi ecosystem, namely
pi400 and pi500. As I tried first to use Objc2 for the Core Desktop, I
was facing many difficulties to get it built with Clang on Pi's. So I
decided to use only GNU runtime to achieve my goal. Maybe people with
better skills could resolve this and provide a PR.
