How did you configure GNUstep make? Did you use 
--library-combo=nx-gnu-gnu (Actually that's not recommended since the 
Darwin compiler does not seem to interact well with GNUstep)?

If not, did you install a GNU gcc (not the one that comes with Darwin)?

Perhaps you can send me your config.log file.
