[bug #16389] Defaults for Objective-C

[SciFi]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #16389 (project make):


Paul,

You repeated what I said already -- because we'd need to add obj-c rules to
*every* affected project.  Apple already depends on GNU make to this degree. 
So far every such project "assumes" the buildbots will be using Apple make --
let's not call it GNU make from this point on just so I can show you how
*restrictive* this assumption is!

Do you really want to cause the buildbots that run on every-other platform to
apply non-GNU-sanctioned patches onto their source trees just for sakes of
cross-building?

Let's make a decision here, please.  Either accept this patch (or a suitable
reworked version if needed) -or- please close this bug with e.g. "WONTFIX" so
I can take this official answer to the other affected projects and urge them
to do the inevitable.  I can't do the latter with much muscle if this bug is
kept open.  Sorry to put it this strongly but I'm tired of fighting these
kinds of spats between projects.  I do this for therapy and for fun, not for
pay or the like.  ;)

Please decide.

Thank you.
