Have anyone of you guys tried GNUstep, the Cocoa clone (predates Cocoa!) that 
works on Linux systems? And have any of you guys tried to write portable code 
that builds on OS X/Cocoa and Linux/GNUstep?

From my experiencesit seemed to me that recent versions of GNUstep (staying on 
svn HEAD here) can run some Cocoa apps, as long as you stay with Foundation, 
AppKit, Core Graphics and CoreFoundation, after a recompile and no code change. 
I still remember they ported TextEdit from Snow Leopard to GNUstep with 
Objective-C 2.0 (their version of libobjc2) and clang 3.2.

Interestingly, their libobjc2 provides Blocks runtime on their own, and a 
generally-regarded “working version” will essentially cross-link with 
libdispatch and libc++.
