This is odd, because clang does support this option, but it's also not the thing that's segfaulting…

I've just rolled back libobjc2 to r36850, built, installed. Afterwards, gnustep-base's configure works again:

$ ./configure --disable-mixedabi CC=/usr/local/bin/clang33 CXX=/usr/local/bin/clang++33

[…]

checking if the compiler supports -fconstant-string-class... yes

It seems r36851 breaks gnustep-base's configure somehow.

Please let me know what else I can provide you with to help track down the problem.

Cheers,
