Re: install make, libobjc, base on cygwin/mingw32

[Michael Scheibler]

I wrote an example program using objc and a highliy modified
gnustep-base 0.6.5, both linked as dll.
gcc got the options -lgnustep-base -lobjc for load-time linking of the
necessary shared libraries.

The result is:

error: NXConstantString (instance)
NXConstantString does not recognize copyWithZone:

abnormal program termination
