It depends _why_ you want GNUstep on OSX...
Running GNUstep on OSX via X11.app is *certainly* not the right approach
if you want to port a gnustep app on OSX.
It is only interesting for a very limited population, mainly
developers that want to use the real gnustep without installing linux,
either for testing the portability of their app, or
to work on gnustep itself using some OSX tools like Shark.
