Just looking over this bug as it's mildly related to GNUstep... Using gcc-3.4.1* here, and not sure if "gobjc" is new, but ... what is that? `gcc source.m -lobjc o my-objc-program` should work just fine. If you're dying to have "gobjc" I suppose an `alias gobjc='gcc -lobjc'` could help you.
The resolution was pretty simple - I had to activate gcc configuration with gcc-config. One thing is still a mistery - why all the sudden window maker has gnustep in the dependecies? The installation of gnustep requires gobjc.. In any case - the bug is resolved for me.
