It would make sense if anything other than the Objective C parts of GNOME
cared about Objective C around here; as it is, GNOME is an insufficient
argument for doubling the pain (we're already struggling with a gcc2.8.1
upgrade).

If GNOME is officially "only bleeding edge need apply" software, then it
won't be adopted where stability is needed.
