You could also be having problems with gcc. gcc 2.96 does not work
(Mandrake 8.1, perhaps others). Use a different compiler, like gcc 3.x.

@subsection Problems running tools and compiling
If you have a system that has SELinux enabled (Fedora Core for example),
you may have trouble running and/or compiling (some tools are run during
the compilation process) GNUstep. This is due to the use of ffcall
and/or libffi and other techniques used to access memory in a way that
SELinux does not like. You might get errors like
@example
trampoline: cannot make memory executable
/bin/sh: line 5: 8427 Aborted ././shared_obj/
make_services --test GSspell.service/Resources/Info-gnustep.plist
gmake[2]: *** [GSspell.service/Resources/Info-gnustep.plist] Error 1
@end example
or
@example
libgnustep-base.so.1.13: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied
@end example
If you are using ffcall, you might need to switch to libffi. But in
either case, it might help to do this:
@example
chcon -t texrel_shlib_t /usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Libraries/*.so
@end example
after installing the base libraries.
