Comment(by and.damore@…):

 I was having time trying to build gnustep-gui and there are
 [http://trac.macports.org/search?q=gnustep-
 gui&noquickjump=1&portsummarysearch=on&ticket=on&changeset=on&milestone=on&wiki=on
 several similar errors on trac] and I couldn't figure what was causing the
 linker issues until I read [http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss-
 gnustep at gnu.org/msg10821.html this message] from discussion-gnustep
 mailing list.

 The point is CoreFoundation dependency on system libobjC, I'm not sure how
 freetype old-mac-fonts support affects this but I was actually able to
 update the gnustep core package that has been broken for a while.

 Actually I haven't tried to build it with-old-mac-fonts so I'm not sure a
 new variant is strictly needed in order to build gnustep, still being able
 to turn it off can definitely come handy.
