Re: gnustep compiled with clang and gworkspace problem

[Fred Kiefer]

The failed test for gui are unrelated to the GWorkspace issue. We shoudl 
start to flag tests that are expected to fail in gui, just as this was 
doen in base. The tests in gui are still somewhat minimal, any help with 
these is highly welcome.
For me (with gcc) only one of the NSBrowser tests fails, but there are 
also two NSView tests that are expected to fail.

The problem with GSColorSliderCell is that the same class gets used by 
different bundles and that we therefore load it multiple times. This has 
worked fine for a long time with the gcc Objective-C runtime but caused 
some trouble with other runtimes. I think David changed the new libobjc2 
runtime specifically for this case to allow the same class being loaded 
twice. Perhaps we could try to rearrange the code here. And seven of the 
ten colour modes could be handled by a gradient anyway...

I don't know anything about the other errors you are getting. Here a 
back trace from gdb could help. Just set a break point on [NSException 
raise] and report back.
