Details:

On updating to gnustep-startup-0.15 from 0.14 NSKeyedArchiver started
producing garbled output. I deleted all the new core library versions and
reinstalled 0.14 and everything was back to normal. 
I've attached the original plist that my app reads in and the archives
produced using both gnustep-startup-0.14 and gnustep-startup-0.15. The plist
isn't directly archived but is encoded as part of a light weight object.
Strangely both startup versions can decode the archive produced by the 0.15
libraries. However more complicated objects, containing binary data for
example, cant be unarchived at all.

I'm using Fedora Core 2 x86 with gcc 3.3 and I've replicated the same
behaviour with Fedora Core 4 on an athlon laptop with gcc4.1.
