I made the minimal required changes. This change means that on 64 bit 
machines the size of a few gui classes changed. On such systems all 
applications must be recompiled.

This sounds like the right way to go. But as you wrote this is even more 
work and I don't have the time for it myself at the moment. And we do 
not only need this for gui, but for back and every other library and 
application inside and outside of GNUstep as well.
