Cool. I know that I'm not invoking GNUstep.sh in this end install at 
all, so it's not required for *everything*. Admittedly my use of 
gnustep-base right now ammounts to NSMutableDictionary and NSString (as 
well as ARP's and some of the other inherited stuff). I look forward to 
the change. I look forward to being able to migrate this project to 
gnustep-make too. :)
