Yup, as I said in the first email:

You need trunk versions of all of these four packages, and you need to 
recompile everything above the runtime with -fobjc-gc-only.  I was pleasantly 
surprised that -gui and Gorm worked with no modifications, and -back only 
needed one file tweaking to use NSAllocateCollectable() instead of malloc().
