- Milestone set to Needs developer review
So what's the word on this one, is the patch good enough? Or is something more elaborate like Landon's autoconf macro necessary?
Setting to "needs dev review" in the mean time.

landon wanted to change the default NXConstantString class over to use NSConstantString instead, I have no idea if this breaks anything else in GNUstep - since there is no test case for tclobjc ?
I do know that it doesn't compile without that header, and I don't see any harm in including it...

Here is the error message, without the <objc/NXConstStr.h> header patched in:
tclobjc.m: In function `tclobjc_dispatch': tclobjc.m:112: error: cannot find interface declaration for `NXConstantString' tclobjc.m:127: error: cannot find interface declaration for `NXConstantString'
