A few people have emailed me saying that the latest GCC has a runtime
library.  

Thank you for you taking the time to email me to answer my newbie questions,
but as I said in the above note, I don't want to create executable Obj-C
code, I want to hack on the compiler.  (To make it bend to my own nefarious
purposes :->)

Therefore, my questions 2 & 3 still stand.

Someone emailed me the GNU OBj-c header file.  To that person: Thank You!

Unless I'm much mistaken, GNU Objective C, like the NeXT implementation
thereof, is a direct code to assembler compiler, i.e. it doesn't go
through a C translation stage.

I couldn't reply by mail for some reason.
