I wish I could say yes :-) but it would bind gnustep-gui to special
gnustep-only features of gnustep-base ... which does not look like a
feasible option.  Still, I'm definitely annoyed - as you are - by having
the code for an entire class duplicated literally in two different classes
in two different libraries.
