In some cases, it might make sense to use/compile only parts of it as 
with the apple-apple-* combo.

Which is great: You can use GDL2 on OS X without installing GNUstep. 
Just check out gnustep-base/Source/Additions, compile it into a 
framework and there you go (slightly idealized).

Before I heard of -baseadd I had to collect my own version of it and I 
still have to change a lot of #includes in GDL2.
