Re: libobjc2 build issues (missing files)

(Re-adding the list since I foobared the last mail)

You could try forcing libobjc2 to be linked against libc++, if you’re not 
reliant on EH interop with C++ (I don’t have the cmake flag for that present, 
I‘m afraid). But you’re probably better off using libstdc++ for the time being.
