I'm very interested in getting Objective C working on FreeBSD, but so far have been unable to get anywhere. I compiled gcc 2.7.0 and everything seemed to compile fine. I then tried to build libobjects-0.1.14 and the test programs. All the test programs fail with a core dump (floating point exception) in libobjc.a, the Objective C runtime library. It seems to be a problem with __builtin_return(), but my compiler knowledge is a bit lacking so I can't figure out exactly what is wrong. Has anyone gotten any Objective C programs to work on FreeBSD? If so, what magic incantations do I have to perform to get them to run?
