If you want new features, you should be using the trunk version of everything.  Mixing random versions of stuff may or may not work - in your case, it seems option 2...

Thanks a lot for your advice David,

So, my build sequence should look something like:

sudo rm -rf /usr/GNUstep/

export CC=gcc

svn co http://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/tools/make/trunk/ gnustep-make

cd gnustep-make

./configure --prefix=/usr/GNUstep --with-layout=gnustep --with-config-file=/usr/GNUstep/Local/Configuration/GNUstep.conf

make

sudo make install

cd ..

. /usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh

svn co http://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/libs/base/trunk gnustep-base

cd gnustep-base

./configure --enable-libffi --with-default-config=/usr/GNUstep/Local/Configuration/GNUstep.conf

make

sudo su -

. /usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh

cd /home/tatd2/Documents/gnustep-base

make install

sudo vim /usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/config.make

# Edit CC etc to use clang

cd ../My\ Project

make

And I should end up with a system that can build objective-C 2.0 projects and my code build?

Is this correct?

Thanks
