Hmm, well to compile GSWeb you still have some other prerequisites.  
Unfortunately the ones noted in gsweb/INSTALL are out of date.  I've got 
an update in one of my trees but the tree isn't quite ready yet to be 
commited  (I'll try to do a partial update soon.).  But what you 
currently also need is: gdl2, gsantlr and gsgd (next to apache, unless 
you're going to try to get the netsacape adaptor working).

But you would stumble across the same problem there...  Rennaisance uses 
its own version of a GNUstep.h file.  I'm wondering whether it would 
more sense, to have -baseadd install GNUstep.h.  All of our other 
projects could then use:

#ifndef GNUSTEP (Well, actually maybe we should use/create a better 
identifier for -base)
#include <GNUstepBase/GNUstep.h> (or gnustep/base/GNUstep.h for now)
#endif

We should also add some #ifndef checks before #define-ing within 
GNUstep.h then.

Thoughts?
