GNUstep newbie installation problem

[Lloyd Dupont]

Hi,

I just donwnloaded ffcall-1.8d, gnustep-make-1.5.1,
gnustep-base-1.5.1

I have w2000, MinGW 2.0.0.3, gcc 3.2
I did
./configure
make
make install

for ffcall, gnustep-make,
the . /......../GNUstep.sh

the
./configure
make
for gnustep-base

and it failed...
at the end, while trying to link every one,
here are the last few lines:
//--------------------
 Linking library libgnustep-base ...
gnustep-base.exp(.edata+0x514):fake: undefined
reference to `__objc_class_name_GSFFCallInvocation'
D:\MinGW\bin\dllwrap.exe: gcc exited with status 1
make[2]: ***
[shared_obj/ix86/mingw32/gnu-gnu-gnu/gnustep-base.dll]
Error 1
make[1]: *** [libgnustep-base.all.library.variables]
Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/d/GNUstep/gnustep-base-1.5.1/Source'
make: *** [internal-all] Error 2
//------------------------------


Also, I wondered, I didn't install gnustep-libobjc as
I have gcc 3.2. But in MinGW, all what I see about
ObjectiveC is libobjc.a (a static library !)
so it is not a problem to use foundation as DLL, while
the runtime is statically linked ?

BTW what is this libobjc.la file ? I have no idea what
a .la file could be...
