So I'm having trouble compiling elliot lee's gtk/objective c bindings
which are used in the gnome project.  The problem is with the linker,
which, I'm sure, is in fact buggy as elliot points out below (b/c I've 
had about 1,000,000 compiles with libtool tell me so =).  

I'm sure this is all debatable... but the point is that elliot is
being a jerk as is evidenced below and probably won't lift a finger to 
make his code portable.

Can someone give me a hint as to how to fix the problem--hopefully
he'll at least incorperate some patches!

Thanks

freebsd-2.2.5-stable, btw

Sounds to me like ld is buggy.

I use Linux, which does ELF, so no problems.
