As per a previous mailing I am trying to carefully follow the instructions in 
README.MinGW on building GNUstep under MinGW/msys for win32.

I have got through to building GNUstep-base now and get this error message at 
the final linking of the gnustep-base DLL:
 gnustep-base.exp(.edata+0x7a8):fake: undefined reference to 
`__objc_class_name_NXConstantString'
f:\mingw\bin\dllwrap.exe: gcc exited with status 1
make[2]: *** [shared_obj/ix86/mingw32/gnu-gnu-gnu/gnustep-base.dll] Error 1
make[1]: *** [libgnustep-base.all.library.variables] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gnustep-base-1.3.4/Source'
make: *** [internal-all] Error 2

As I understand it, NXConstantString is excluded from the GNUstep objc 
library and reimiplemented in GSString.m.  If I use objdump to look at 
symbols defined in GSString.o I find that NXConstantString is not there - but 
instead NSConstantString.  I am puzzled how a class implemented in the source 
code does not appear in the compiled code??
