[bug #12575] suggestion about header files in frameworks

[matt rice]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #12575 (project gnustep):

-framework in gcc is a snap to implement, it only sends -framework to ld,
this is in gcc 4 already but only enabled for darwin in
gcc/config/darwin-c.c. (only -F is needed for the header lookup)

ld support is blocked by ld.so support search for 'slash' in
http://www.caldera.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch5.dynamic.html#shobj_dependencies

ELF defines semantics which conflict with framework support, and my
requests/patches for a substitution sequence (next section below the
reference to slash) which would produce an undefined behaviour by the ELF
spec where we could implement what is needed for frameworks, have fallen on
deaf ears.

anyhow i have it all working, what is left seems mostly political.
