Follow-up Comment #6:

It seems to me that the critical part in the output you quote is:

checking whether objc has thread support... no 

I'm pretty sure that's from the gnustep-make configure (and base gets the
information from make) to determine the threading in use.

Looking at configure.ac for gnustep-make, it seems that it tries a variety of
options of linker flags to get threading working, but it's possible that none
of those work on your system (it's also possible that a non-threaded objc
library is being picked up even though the gcc version in use was compiled for
threading).

You could check to see how many libobjc's you have installed, and eliminate
possibilities to make sure there's only one.  You could then examine that
libobjc to see what it's linked with and figure out the threading flags needed
(or if it really doesn't support threading, replace it with one that does).
