Objective-C is the other OOP variant of C, and reportedly much easier to 
program in. It's still in heavy use in the Mac World, being one of the 
two main languages for Cocoa Programming, but isn't much used in the 
rest of the world, apart from maybe GNUStep (Objective-C was the primary 
language used in NeXTSTEP and OPENSTEP software.)

As far as I know, objective C is sort of ancestor to C++, an object 
oriented C, and I doubt if anyone is still using it nowadays. As for 
re-entrant, this is used when doing thread programming.

I didn't bother with these either when upgrading a 4.7 box to 4.8.

Hello

I am going through /etc/defaults/make.conf (4-stable) and am
at a loss concerning two items:  Objective C support, and
libc_r (re-entrant version of libc).  What are those?  I built
the world recently without them, and I'm not witnessing any
problems, but I'm curious.  Google got me some answers
I couldn't understand...
Thanks in advance.
