You just have to configure make with the option "--enable-native-objc-exceptions". (As this is so far not on by default it isn't in the binary release either, so you have to compile GNUstep yourself, but as windows releases are unfortunally seldom and thus often out-of-date you probably have to stick to that anyway in order to work sensibly.) Just follow the building instructions in the README.MinGW file of the make package or on the wiki page http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/Installation_on_Windows (in doubt the readme is more up-to-date) and add the above option to the "./configure" phase of the make package. Building by hand on windows is a somewhat lenghty process. But it is mostly cut-and-paste from the howtos. I hope this helps you.
