Hi David,

Yes, the latest code works fine on amd64:
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/232176650/buildlog_ubuntu-trusty-amd64.libobjc2_1.9.0~gitcommit866-1_BUILDING.txt.gz

Unfortunately, a test seems to be failing on i386:
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/232176681/buildlog_ubuntu-trusty-i386.libobjc2_1.9.0~gitcommit866-1_BUILDING.txt.gz

I am happy with amd64 working for now. Thanks!

P.S. Some of your responses were clipped :-)
