   GNU C v2.0 will include Objective-C support, but I am not sure about
   run-time support for it.  GNU C v2 should be out some time in the VERY
   near future, but for now, the NeXT version of GNU C v1.39 that has
   Objective-C extensions (and the gdb debugger to support it) are
   available from NeXT for a 'distribution fee', which is pretty small
   (under $100 I think for the entire distribution of GNU software with
   NeXT modifications).  You can reach NeXT at +1 800 848 NeXT.

GCC 2.0 will, of course, have an Objective-C runtime library, written
(I'm told) by Cygnus Support.

BTW, under Release 1.0 of the NeXT software, the GNU sources were made
public, and put on several FTP sites.  Anyone with the current GNU
sources (with NeXT's modifications) may legally make them available by
any means he/she wishes.  That's part of the GPL.

So, if anyone has the Release 2.0 GNU sources, how about it?  B-)
