Including compilation of objc enabled gcc in test-gnustop script ?

[T.J. Yang]

Following is the error logs I got from running startup/scripts/test-gnustep on 
a emac running 8.11.0 Darwin(ppc).

Question is can we put in effort for better automation experience when try to 
startup gnustep environment ?
if needed objc gcc is not installed, why not just compile it using  apple's gcc 
?
This is true for other Unix OS (solaris,opensolaris,hp-ux and AIX etc...) also.

knowing compiling gcc is not a small task, but without a gcc with objc support, 
gnustep compilation can't proceed.

Is there other gnustep persion willing to contribute a version gcc source that 
can be compiled on emac ppc using gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 
5367) ?
