 I doubt it. Their runtime seems to work, so either they'd say: We need 
feature X in the GNU runtime, lets switch over completely, or they'd 
stick to their runtime. Having two runtimes only doubles the maintenance 
effort. I guess the only option in that case would be to change GNUstep 
to work with Apple's runtime, if that is possible at all.

 Is there any chance of maybe putting that up on the web site along with 
the other docs? It's kinda awkward to have half the docs in one place 
and half in the other, and personally, before trying out such a complex 
installation, I will usually want to read everything beforehand once to 
make sure it's something I can do with my current setup.

Thanks, I'll pursue that venue.
