as for now, we are still fully compatible with GCC. Of course, you 
cannot use certain "features" that are available only in clang.
Sadly, there is little objective-c effort in the GCC theme and there 
were some releases that were quite bad: so how long the GNU compiler 
will be able to support GNU-step depends also on GCC's effort.

Currently, GCC support is still very good, I have no issues on Linux, 
BSD and Windows. All applications I maintain work on both compilers.

Sorry to read that you have many issues on Windows. I am able to compile 
and run most Applications that do have very specific needs. There are 
specific Window issues though.
