What gcc version are you using? In 3.x, NXConstantString is replaced 
internally (in GNUstep) by NSConstantString. If it's looking for 
NXConstantString it probably indicates a problem in the configuration, 
or perhaps there is an old version of the libobjc library laying around 
(from a previous gcc or GNUstep installation).
