Of course it works for me on NetBSD 6.2.1 (the latest release, which was
released just a few days ago). The compiler is gcc 4.5.3. You might check that
the class definition is generated in the executable. The output for
nm conftest | grep Test
on my NetBSD system is
08049420 d _OBJC_CLASS_METHODS_Test
080494a0 d _OBJC_CLASS_Test
08049340 d _OBJC_CLASS_VARIABLES_Test
08049460 d _OBJC_METACLASS_Test
08048a38 R __objc_class_name_Test
08049878 d __objc_class_ref_Test
0804892e t _c_Test__initialize
08048933 t _c_Test__testResult
If those definitions are present (possibly with different addresses) you might
check that __objc_exec_class is called in the executable, which should register
the Test class in the runtime system. Unfortunately, there is no easy way to
inspect the argument of this function without building a debugging version of
the Objective-C runtime library.
