It effectively makes it impossible to use exceptions in ObjC++ with every other runtime than yours, as it generates code that references symbols in the GNUstep namespace. If you won't do it, I'll give it a try, but it would probably be better if you do it.

I'm not sure what you mean by "remove";  if that's GNUstep's ABI, then that's GNUstep's ABI.  It sounds like what you actually want is for it to be extracted into a different subclass.
