Checking the ISA reference, it appears that the required atomic
instructions appeared in the 486, so -march=486 should work. I have
an almost identical patch applied locally and it builds correctly with
no modifications to the GNUmakefile, so I'm slightly confused as to
why this fails for Fred.

On i386, you need -march=i586 or higher for this to work. The
existing code will break at runtime, rather than link time, on an
80486 and earlier, and so I assume (from the fact no one has
complained) that no one is using GNUstep on a 386/486.
Are you sure about that? Cause I've built GNUstep multiple time
with the script here:
http://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/12.2/libraries/gnustep-base/gnustep-base.SlackBuild
And have never had a problem. (Note that the default will build
with -march=486)
