Right now, NSToolbar should support most of the toolbar features 
smoothly except toolbar items rearranging and customizing.

I would like to see an example of that, but what I can said is that 
currently -contentView returns a view which includes the toolbar area 
when the toolbar is set; to obtain strictly the content view you need 
to call -contentViewWithoutToolbar. May be the problem is here…
I plan to rewrite later this implementation in order to have a behavior 
which would be 100 % cocoa compatible.

Probably your view height is higher than what is permitted by the 
toolbar height.

You can take a look at ToolbarExample application which is located in 
/gnustep/usr-apps/examples/gui/ to see a working toolbar based 
application; I need to update this example, but the basic functionality 
should give you an idea and should work.
You can send me a mail directly; with the possibility to take a look at 
your program I would be able to help you more easily.
