Re: GNUSTEP_WITH_DLL and GSObjCRuntime.h

undefined references to gnustep-base functions and methods such as  
NSLog. This occurs building any of the Tools, including autogsdoc and  
cvtenc. I initially thought it was the GNUSTEP_WITH_DLL setting but  
it now looks more like libgnustep-base.dll.a doesn't have any base  
symbols, whereas gnustep-base.dll does:
