Well this is a decision that just has to be made explicit before we can 
continue...

a) We leave the gnustep/ directory (and also leave gnustep/base, 
gnustep/gui) and install Foudation (when applicable) at top level (well, 
with --disable-flattened under the library combo) and require -make to 
install gnustep.
b) We move everything to the the top level and support custom OS X / PB 
projects.

I personally have no preference.  Yet, I would prefer a final decision 
soon though.  And we should at least inform -discuss about the decision 
before we commit anything affecting this.

I'd prefer not install them at all, if they are not meant to be public.

Depending on "the decision", I agree, Manuel?

Depending on "the decision", I'll try to insure either
"gnustep/extensions/*.h"
"gnustep/objc/*.h"
or
"FoundationExt/extenstions/*.h"
"FoundationExt/objc/*.h"
