gnustep-base-1.10.0 configuring issue with gcc-3.3.2 : libgcc_s.so.1 not found

[T.J. Yang]

Hi, there

Execuse me for submitting this issue when I first joint the list.  I plan to 
pacakge
gnustep at least for Solaris platform.(I have other plan but save it for 
later email).

I am aware of there is binary pkgadd packages for gnustep already. But I 
need to control the package source so I can install/configure the way I 
need.

gnustep-make is a easy one. gnustep-base-1.10.0
looks easy but I just can't get over the issue.

Following are details that I think helpful for others to help me out.

1. My configure option
$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/TWWfsw/GNUstep LDFLAGS=-R/opt/TWWfsw/gcc332r/lib 
-L/opt/TWWfsw/gcc332r/lib

2. The error output
<snip>

I don't seem to be able to use your Objective-C compiler to produce
working binaries!  Please check your Objective-C compiler installation.
If you are using gcc-3.x make sure that your compiler's libgcc_s and libobjc
can be found by the dynamic linker - usually that requires you to play
with LD_LIBRARY_PATH or /etc/ld.so.conf.
Please refer to your compiler installation instructions for more help.
configure: error: The Objective-C compiler doesn't work or is not installed 
properly.
