if needed objc gcc is not installed, why not just compile it using

This is true for other Unix OS (solaris,opensolaris,hp-ux and AIX
etc...) also.
knowing compiling gcc is not a small task, but without a gcc with
objc support, gnustep compilation can't proceed.
Is there other gnustep persion willing to contribute a version gcc
source that can be compiled on emac ppc using gcc version 4.0.1
(Apple Computer, Inc. build 5367) ?
Well, installing a compiler is a big deal - I don't really want to
include it in the gnustep-startup distribution for the few cases
where someone might want it. And where would it be installed?
The apple gcc compiler just does not work with gnustep. There are
several reasons, and sometimes they change between OS X releases and
no one has really put in the effort to fix it. There are lots of
places to get the FSF gcc compiler for Mac OSX. either fink or
darwinports/macports would probably work.
