I've never used them, but I've no reason to believe that they don't work. I think the problem is that they require you to check out GNUstep from one of the byzantine nest of svn external locations, and occasionally these external things don't work. Not sure about the x86_64 part of the path - is the VM image x86-64 only? I think for the --with-ffi-library, you need to specify the directory containing the library, not the library binary itself. Since we require clang for some Étoilé components, it would be a good idea for the scripts to grab and install the latest LLVM / Clang as well. In this case, make sure that you configure GNUstep Make to use the non-fragile ABI and compile with clang.
