The one that I find in the base system seems to be a similar match to the one in ports/devel/f2c. Is the one in the base system a pain to maintain or otherwise holding back other work, or has it been made obsolete by something in ports? Is removing it from the base system anything more than just churn? With libobjc, the one in ports looks to indeed be a lot newer, and I'll take it on faith that the gnustep ports automatically installs it, overriding the base copy and making it essentially obsolete.
