Even better, the configuration script could offer to download a 
known-to-work version of the required librari(es), then build and 
install them somewhere in the gnustep environment. All automated. 
Should just require a "wget ... && configure --prefix ... && make && 
make install".

I've seen this when building mldonkey (they require a rare programming 
language) and it worked great.
