Note that building GNUstep on MacOSX is difficult as the symbols used by 
GNUstep conflict with ones in the standard OSX libraries.  It's also not very 
useful as there is a perfectly acceptable implementation of Cocoa already on 
OSX. Probably a better approach is to load a virtual machine onto OSX running 
Linux or Windows and compile GNUstep on that, using that to test any code you 
have built on OSX.
