I tried that! The frameworks built and installed fine, I could even run  
an application built with XCode and Debug as the target. But as soon as  
I switched to Release I got an error message that the frameworks haven  
been built for the wrong platform!? Rather weird! Are you building your  
applications (linking to your frameworks) with XCode or with gnustep  
make?

Thanks for the links!
