>Description:

devel/gnustep-make depends on lang/gnustep-objc, which in turn needs
lang/gcc32.  This seems unnecessary on -current, now that the
system ships with 3.3.1.

/usr/src/gnu/lib/libobjc/Makefile has

NOPIC=  works but method lookup slowdown is significant

How much slower is it?  Probably the biggest objc framework
out there is GNUstep; if it and its apps use a shared libobjc,
either they run a lot slower than they should, or it's not a
large enough speed hit to be an issue.

>How-To-Repeat:

Read devel/gnustep-make/Makefile, devel/gnustep/bsd.gnustep.mk,
/usr/src/gnu/lib/libobjc/Makefile.  Try building gnustep.

>Fix:

ifdef out the CC/CXX defines in devel/gnustep/bsd.gnustep.mk for
-current, and create an objc shlib.
