The base library itsself does not work with the apple runtime afaik (certainly its not supported) ... when you try to build with the apple runtime, it assume that you are going to use the apple Foundation framework too, so only the base extensions are built.
I'm not sure why anyone would want to use the base library with the apple runtime ... certainly it makes no sense on gnu/linux as the apple runtime has nothing to offer there.

Original post refers to a certain Christina B. developing binary compatibility of ARM Linux machines with iOS 5:

If -base could run with Apple's runtime which Christina apparently ported to Linux, it would probably be helpful in getting actual binary compatible iOS apps running on ARM Linux devices (albeit, only unencrypted iOS apps). In fact, perhaps iOS apps could then be developed under Linux.
