I just tried on NetBSD. configure fails, here an excertp:

checking alignment of pthread_cond_t... 4
checking for pthread_join in -lpthread... yes
./configure: /Local: permission denied
./configure: $CURRENT_GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES/: permission denied
checking for pthread_getthreadid_np... no
checking for pthread_main_np... no
checking for sched_yield in -lrt... yes
checking for nanosleep... yes
checking for usleep... yes
checking for Sleep... no
checking for objc_root_class attribute support... not present
checking for pthread_set_name_np... no
test: ==: unexpected operator
checking for pthread_setname_np() variant... netbsd

two tests seem to fail, but in config.log I don't see the error. It 
looks  configure is trying to execute. something in the wrong place 
because a variable is empty.

I don't find the "==" test in config log either.
