sorry, but I still don't get the use-case of having wxCocoa just plain on GNUstep without more.

If you have a wx program written in C++ you can already port it to Windows, Cocoa and Unix/X11.

If you have an Obj-C AppKit program you can use it either directly on Mac or with GNUstep on Windows and Unix/X11

So what would you gain with having wxCocoa on GNUstep if you want to expose only the wx C++ interface? I still think nothing... there are no more targets GNUstep has which wx doesn't have.
