Great, so at last we know the situation. My question is "What has 
changed?". I seem to recall ObjcC as part of the 2.95 gcc release, and I'm 
just wondering if there's is some fundamental difficulty in gcc3 that has 
caused it's removal?

Unfortunately, I don't have the time to make a package, even if we could. I 
would like to use ObjC on Cygwin though.
