Fred, the remark was certainly not meant that way: I very much appreciate the work you all put into this. But I have no experience working with experimantal libraries: but 25 years of mainframe programmint learned me that the in 99.9999 % of the cases, the problem is with your program, and not with a system library. That why Ive kept trying to recompile for two weeks, before posting to the disussion list.
As you indicated, the error was already solved: I reloaded the new libobjc2 and GNUstep base built almost completely error-free.
