Can you check your conflg.log to see what it says about the failing program?

Unfortunately, not that much (I've stripped some parts)

configure:13329: result: no

configure:13344: error: Your compiler does not appear to implement the -fconstant-string-class option needed for support of strings.  Please check for a more recent version or consider using --enable-nxconstantstring

I've configured gnustep-make and libobjc2 (in this order) like this:

This looks mostly sensible, except that if you do it like this you will have to re-configure GNUstep-make to tell it to use libobjc2 - currently it will default to -lobjc, and you're installing libobjc2 as libobjc2.so.

Oh, I forgot: this will install as libobjc (probably a bug in the cmake process). I've not looked into this, but you should be able to spot this quickly I guess.

Cheers,
