On the contrary: I think support for --enable-objc-gc at both the toplevel and gcc can just go. * At the toplevel, it's just a preliminary check which I don't think is necessary at all since it's redone in more detail in libobjc. * In gcc, all that --enable-objc-gc does is set OBJC_BOEHM_GC in gcc/Makefile, which isn't ever used.
