Richard's already answered your question, but some quick additional
comments for future reference:

This is gnustep-make 2.0.2. Type 'make print-gnustep-make-help' for

Making all for tool WriteStr2File...
Linking tool WriteStr2File ...
This is your clue. The tool is being linked, but nothing is being
compiled first. That is the reason you get this:
/usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.4/../../../../lib/crt1.o: In
function `_start':
(.text+0x18): undefined reference to `main'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
The linker is running, because it is linking all of the libraries, but
it is not linking anything other than the libraries.
If you run into this kind of issue again, try doing:
make messages=yes
This will show you the commands that make is running. Doing this, you
would see that the linker command does not contain any .o files and so
you could see that the .m file is not being compiled or linked.
It looks as if certain names like {{ LogTest, simple, ...}} were pre-
compiled into GNUstep make. Is this a known undocumented problem, or
will building GNUstep Make from source solve this problem?
I usually write:
${TOOL_NAME}_OBJC_FILES =
instead of:
TheRealToolName_OBJC_FILES =
This makes it easier to reuse the GNUmakefile for another project. A
few of the Étoilé GNUmakefiles (Mélodie, for example) take this even
further and use lines like this:
$(APP_NAME)_OBJC_FILES = $(wildcard *.m)
If you do this, then you just need to set APP_NAME when you reuse the
makefile.
