Re: Red Hat 7.1 and gnustep-gui

[David Relson]

Arthur,

/usr/bin/ld: warning: type and size of dynamic symbol
`__objc_class_name_NSAutoreleasePool' are not defined

Messages like the above are annoying, harmless messages.  They are due to a 
mismatch of expectations between what the Objective-C component of gcc 
(old) generates and what ld (new) expects.  If you're interested, I have a 
patch for ld that suppresses this message.
