Yes, I must avoid Gorm because it's extremely slow on this Box.

I think that that such support should entail a Skeleton for projects
using gnustep-make.

In such a Skeleton header files should contain eg.: '-*-objc-*-' :) ,
all (or some) source files should contain GPL license, authors name,
developer's e-mail address, etc..
