I'm working on this to make this "first step" obsolete. Because I think
time is invested much better in building new packages than in debating
on how to work around the old ones.

First results are here:

Not flawlessly, yet, because the old packaging interferes a lot with
recent sources, but I'm continueing. With some luck, a recent
gnustep-make is available tomorrow, which should act the same way as if
you had compiled/installed it by hand.

Currently it uses gcc/libobjc, switching to clang/libobjc2 should be
straightforward.
