I choose the CentOS machine for now and did the following:
yum install gcc
yum install gcc-objc
yum install make libpng libpng-devel libtiff libtiff-devel libobjc
libxml2 libxml2-devel libX11-devel libXt-devel libjpeg libjpeg-devel
cd /usr/src
gunzip gnustep-startup-0.32.0.tar.gz
tar xvf gnustep-startup-0.32.0.tar
cd gnustep-startup-0.32.0
./configure

So far so good! I tried to build
make
and got

Compiling file NSZone.m ...
Compiling file externs.m ...
Compiling file objc-load.m ...
Compiling file GSFileHandle.m ...
Compiling file NSMessagePort.m ...
Compiling file NSMessagePortNameServer.m ...
Compiling file GSFFIInvocation.m ...

/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value

gmake[5]: *** [obj/libgnustep-base.so.1.24.6] Error 1
OK, let's see
make clean
export CC="gcc -m64 -fPIC"
make
No avail!?

Any idea?
Thanks a lot,
