Well, I found the right way doing this :

make
sudo -s 
### which preserve LD_LIBRARY_PATH
make install
### No more errors !!!
exit
./setup.sh
### trying the userlevel setup

I found a missing test in setup.sh : the script does'nt test if the Fonts
directory exist. So copying fonts in there failed :

00:10:32 (400.54 KB/s) - « etoile-default-fonts.tar.gz » sauvegardé
[27075607/27075607]

Copying Fonts in /home/patrick/GNUstep/Library/Fonts
cp: la cible `/home/patrick/GNUstep/Library/Fonts' n'est pas un répertoire
# I translate : cp: the target ... is not a directory

Maybe sould we add something like this after adding the Etoile directory :

# Test or Create Fonts directory
if [ ! -d "$setupdir/Fonts" ]; then 
        echo "Creating $setupdir/Fonts directory";
        $SUDO mkdir $setupdir/Fonts
fi
