|| (
			>=sys-devel/gcc-3.3:=[objc]
			sys-devel/clang
		)

:= operator is forbidden and broken inside || (). I understand what you're trying to do here but since active gcc changes break it anyway, I guess you can drop := and forget about any sanity.

    gnustep-base/gnustep-make: Remove := slot op from || dep, #561728


Leaving the bug open in case you want to restore := support in some way.

Indeed, it could only help a bit in simple cases, but did not help when toying with the active compiler. There are other checks later in the ebuild to try and mitigate these problems, and gnustep-updater can fix most of these.

Thanks for the fix, and good bye := in || ()
