Don't know very much about GNUstep.  However Xext is one of the standard
X libraries, so don't think this has too much to do with GNUstep.

The file it is looking for is libXext.*.  I have both a static (libXext.a) and shared (libXext.so.6) version under /usr/X11R6/lib on my machine (Debian).  I think if you just typed "locate libXext" and then set you library search path accordingly that would probably solve all your problems (-L before the -l command in gcc/ld to set the linker search directory).
