problems with Gorm 0.1.0-8 on debian ppc

[Jim McLoughlin]

Hi folks

I've recently installed gnustep from the debian unstable packages (the stable 
ones were pretty outdated), and have been enjoying gworkspace, gnumail, and 
terminal.app.

I am now trying to get the project center / gorm tutorials on gnustep.it 
working.  The problem is, gorm is crashing whenever it is started ( by double 
clicking on the .gorm file in PC, or opening it directly).

I attach a log of the output that is produced by PC and Gorm when following the 
tutorial directly, including the thrown exception. The Gorm error is thrown by 
on its own if gorm is opened independently.  I also attach the .xinitrc file 
used to steup my gnustep environment, which I customized from the made-it.com 
build guide.

The only area of suspicion for me is the lack of an NSHost.  I removed it from 
the environment config because my X setup was not allowing any of the apps to 
display on `hostname`:0.0.  Displays were only working with DISPLAY=:0.0.  (If 
anyone has a tip as to how I can fix this quickly, it's of course welcome).  
Still, it seemse like the apps deal OK with the lack of hostname, so I don't 
think that's the problem.  It seems like the problem is related to libffcall?  
(though I am using the latest version)

Here are the versions of gnustep and apps I am working with (all installed via 
debian's apt-get system, including the header files where applicable):

ProjectCenter: 0.3.0rel-5
Gorm: 0.1.0-8
gnustep-base/make: 1.5.0-1
gnustep-gui/back: 0.8.1-1
libffcall: 1.8-5

Any help in pointing out the cause/solution to this problem greatly 
appreciated.  (any advice, albeit off topic, on why I can't config NSHost 
properly also welcome).  I tried removing and reinstalling gorm with no luck.

cheers
