A couple of things about this: 1. I think that libobjc2 should work on PowerPC, only without support for the assembly paths. You won’t be able to use objc_msgSend (and the compiler will use the slower message sending mechanism) or imp_implementationWithBlock, but everything else should work. 2. If libobjc2 doesn’t work, you don’t actually need it to be able to use declared properties. Clang (and, I think, gcc 4.6ish or later) will generate calls to runtime functions. These are supported in either a vaguely recent GCC runtime or by the ObjectiveC2 compatibility framework that GNUstep builds as part of Foundation.
