GCC 4.6 uses the same functions as the Apple runtime, with the exception
of objc_copyStruct(), which was designed wrong in the Apple runtime
and has been replaced in the GNU Objective-C Runtime ABI by the couple
of functions

objc_setPropertyStruct()
objc_getPropertyStruct()

So, I guess libobjc2 would need these two (trivial functions) to work
with GCC 4.6.
