Well, unfortunately the patches you committed thus far did not solve 
the problems on Fedora Core 3. :-(...

Actually, I'll try replacing _all_ occurrences of

    #include <objc/...>

with

    #include "..."

in the objc headers (via '%s/<objc\/\(.*\)>/"\1"/g' vim command), and 
then rebuild
to see if that helps, so why don't you hold off for now.  Thanks.

Me neither...

I really don't know much about the innards of the auto* tools, so 
perhaps
someone more knowledgable can chime in, and/or you can ask the auto* 
gurus
directly like you suggest.
