Just for the record, I'm "running" GNUstep (the latest 'unstable' as
of May 21) on an older Blade 100 (UltraSPARC IIe) with Solaris 10
5/08, using GCC 4.0.2 (Blastwave) and ffcall from sources
(enable-shared).

For some reason, gdnc and gpbs return '1' when started, but do run
anyway. However, gdomap claims that neither is running when asked via
the -L option.

WRT whether ffcall or ffi work on BSD -- as for FreeBSD, they both do
(last time I checked), but I would recommend ffcall, since it seems to
perform a bit faster.
