Whoops, understandable! - I typed "C99", when I meant "libc".

Again, my mistake - I accidently crossed-wires by mentioning c99; when the
point I was trying make was to draw the parralel/similarity between C and libc,
and Obj-C and GNUstep ( or FoundationKit, or whatever ).
To flog the proverbally dead horse - if one were toying with the idea of objc-c
on Plan 9, it is logical that one would also desire to - of course! - have some
form of complementary, functionality-enhancing and/or convienience libraries
to better fulfill the usefulness of the obj-c language itself; and that bringing,
say, the GNUstep _core_ Libraries ( not a plethora of userland apps! ), will
not somehow cause the kitchen sink of nasty GNU/Linux practices to get pulled
in along with it.
I think what happened here, is that, when I said "GNUstep", people heard:
"X11", 'nuff said.
I don't want X11 on Plan 9; and I don't want Linux on Plan 9.
I don't even necessarily want "GNU" on Plan 9 ( although I'm not downright
hostile to GNU, as -seems- to be the general consensus here on 9fans!, heheh ).
I'd just like to use this space to thank everyone's patience, and to apologize if
I managed to inadvertently ruffle-feathers or cause annoyance - I hope it can be
seen that I'm being sincere, and that I do appreciate the opportunity to risk
bouncing some semi half-baked ideas off the experts and professionals here
on this list in a friendly manner; as I've mentioned before, quite honestly: I'm
merely a hobbyist and OS enthusiast.
An extremely interesting platform such as Plan 9 is _bound_ to occasionally
draw the attention of folks like myself.
Cheers,
Corey
