On OpenBSD 5.2 I get exception when connecting to a server:
NSInvalidArgumentException: aString object passed to -[GSAttributedString 
initWithString:attributes] is nil

gnustep-make-2.6.2
gnustep-base-1.24.0p0
gnustep-gui-0.22.0
gnustep-back-0.22.0
gnustep-netclasses-1.06p0
talksoup-1.0alpha

netclasses and talksoup are basically exactly the same.
Above tests both with libobjc that comes with system gcc 4.2.1.

Will try a 5.3 tomorrow, and also with -current, and then on current also with 
talksoup from CVS. Beginning with 5.3, I think then its with libobjc2, but 
still 
with gcc.
