What operating system are you using?

I believe that on (at least some) BSD systems, the compiler/linker/loader
causes the implementation of NXConstantString in the objc runtime library to
be used instead of the GNUstep implementation.

If this is the problem, you need to use the ar command to remove the
NXConstStr.o module from libobjc.a, and then re-link your apps/programs.
