Either a mail to the -dev list, or a report in the bug tracking system. Ideally both - bug reports don't always get seen immediately, but stuff sent to the list may get lost if it isn't fixed immediately. > b) find out if it's apple's fault This is less important - in general, we try to be bug-compatible with Apple, unless they do something really stupid. It's worth including a test case so that we can fix our version if Apple fixes theirs later. Also, please check Apple's documentation. If their implementation and documentation agree, it's definitely a GNUstep bug. If they disagree (not very common, but more common than I would like), we have to decide on a case-by-case basis whether we should follow the docs or not. > c) attach a patch svn diff, and post to the list.
