Details:

Not sure if this has to do with the reorg of gnustep currently.
The problem seems to stem from:

  [GS_INITIALIZED_LOCK(local_lock, GSLazyRecursiveLock) lock];

Error (removing stuff since it is compining in parallel, single mode produces
same result)

 Compiling file EONSAddOns.m ...
EONSAddOns.m: In function ‘GSUseStrictWO451Compatibility’:
EONSAddOns.m:77: error: expected expression before ‘GSLazyRecursiveLock’
EONSAddOns.m:77: warning: invalid receiver type ‘int’
EONSAddOns.m:77: confused by earlier errors, bailing out
 Compiling file EOArrayDataSource.m ...
Preprocessed source stored into /tmp/ccbVAozx.out file, please attach this to
your bugreport.

The macro that fails look like this:

#define GS_INITIALIZED_LOCK(IDENT,CLASSNAME) \
           (IDENT != nil ? IDENT : [CLASSNAME newLockAt: &IDENT])

and is defined in base/Headers/Additions/GNUstepBase/GSCategories.h

I workaround it by doing:

if (local_lock == nil) {
 local_lock = [GSLazyRecursiveLock new];
}

Probably not optimal since GSLazyRecursiveLock does not implement newLockAt:
(or its super class NSRecursiveLock)
What is the best way to solve this?

Let me know if you need the preprocessed file.
