That bug report is about not being able to compile GNUstep with Apple GCC.
This won't work, because Apple GCC can't target the GNU runtime (clang can on
OS X, so that might work, but it's untested). GNUstep does not work with
Apple's Objective-C runtime, which is designed to work closely with Apple's
Foundation.
I'm not really sure what the objective is in using GNUstep on OS X. You can
use GNUstep Additions to get most of the GNUstep extensions on top of Cocoa,
and you can just use Cocoa if you want the core APIs...
