The other thing is that we had a similar frustrating problem where none 
of the classes in the gnustep-gui library were getting 
loaded/constructed.  It turned out to be a bad libtiff shared library!.

You might check every shared library that might be linking with GNUstep. 
I got all mine from the URLs listed in make/Documentatino/README.MinGW 
and they seem to work.
