FWIW (not much, I guess) I've never managed to build GNUstep completely 
using a 2.9x compiler, on Linux or on Solaris.  However, I've never 
managed to *not* build GNUstep with a 3.y compiler so could you put a 
newer compiler in, say, /opt/gcc3 and try building from that?  Oh, and 
on compilers, did you install the gnustep-objc?  You need to go into the 
makefile for gnustep-objc and set the appropriate threading model but I 
can't remember what this should be under Linux :-).

Cheers,

Graham.
