A concern about that. From Mark Mitchell's message:
"The default configuration for GCC should not include Objective-C++; a user who
wants Objective-C++ should explicitly use --enable-languages."
Won't this produce a lot of "I tried to build SomeApp.app and it didn't work at
all" on GNUstep mailing lists when somebody builds his own compiler or a
clueless distro doesn't include it? Shouldn't ObjC++ be pushed for as a
default build option?
