I remember problems using 2.95 libobjc with gcc3... but I'll try.
Actually I libFoundation fails to compile with it, same problems with 
objc_* defines in config.h, I'll look further tomorrow.

This is true, but if you want thread support in FreeBSD you have to link 
against libc_r instead of libc. There is not a separate libpthread or 
similar.

Hem, I'm not familiar to submitting pathes to Mozilla, so if you have 
time feel free to do it. I'll look at it but starting from this saturday 
I'm in vacation! :-)

Yes, it works.

You have forgot to change the inclusion path, here the patch:
