I'm not sure if there is any documentation, but it's not so tricky. Objective-C 2 extends both the compiler and runtime requirements over Objective-C 1. The only compiler that supports the new syntax is clang - you'll need an svn build from the last couple of months. Then you can use it as a drop-in replacement for gcc (although it doesn't yet support [Objective-]C++, only [Objective-]C).
For the runtime components, you have two options. Either link in ObjectiveC2.framework from Étoilé svn, or use libobjc2 from GNUstep svn instead of GCC's libobjc. The latter option is preferred, but requires you to relink everything (or use something like libmap.conf) to use the new runtime instead of the old one. If you are using libobjc2, then you should compile with -fobjc- nonfragile-abi, which enables the new ABI, allowing accelerated proxies, better introspection, and non-fragile instance variables.
