 The constants are Carbon. The methods in the table are the only 
thing of interest to GNUstep, and those don't use the constants.

 From my (admittedly slightly dated) version of the GNUstep headers, 
it looks like GNUstep has them all, except for anything having to do 
with control sizes. Those are new with OS X 10.3, IIRC, so it isn't 
very surprising that it isn't in GNUstep yet.
