Hi Lars, I think besides objc-compiler support there is nothing special needed for RISC V (or other processor architectures like i386, arm, mips, ppc).
If you look at https://packages.debian.org/sid/gnustep-base-runtime https://packages.debian.org/sid/libgnustep-base1.27 you will see that there is experimental riscv64 support in Debian Sid, e.g. compiled binary libs: https://packages.debian.org/sid/riscv64/libgnustep-base1.27/filelist So IMHO there is no gap or anything special to do. Like for most other user-space code (unless you want to use architecture specific features like vector instruction sets). What I can't judge is how buggy basic objective c support is.
