problem with gworkspace-0.9.0 and gnustep-base-1.23.0

[Sebastian Reitenbach]

Hi,

I updated gworkspace to the new version 0.9.0, having
gnustep-base-1.22.1, gnustep-gui-0.20.0, gnustep-back-0.20.1 (cairo)
installed on OpenBSD i386. libobjc is from gcc, all is compiled with
gcc. There it works great. Afterwards I updated gnustep-base to the new
1.23.0, and recompiled everything.

Now I get the following output on the console when it starts up:

2011-09-30 17:52:42.055 GWorkspace[26314] XShm not supported,
XShmAttach() failed.

2011-09-30 17:52:46.176 GWorkspace[26314] Unable to obtain lock (null)

It doesn't load the configured background image, nor does it load the
app icons in the dock, and doesn't open the file browser.

Running GWorkspace in gdb, I get the following backtrace on the exception:

When GWorkspace is running, and I double click on the File Browser icon
in the dock to open it, the file browser opens, but also the following
exception window pops up:
NSInvalidArgumentException: aString object passed to -[GSAttributeString
initWithString:attributes:] is nil

The backtrace is similar to the first.

Riccardo posted some similar problems some weeks ago, but this seems to
be a bit different, is this sth. known, and maybe even fixed alredy in svn?
