I would check the creation and modification dates on
SomeObjectiveCSourceFile.m ... Gcc has a problem where it does just this if
the file seems to have been created or modified before 0 on the UNIX
clock(ie, Jan 1, 1970). Don't ask me how files get that way but I had the
same exact problem a few weeks ago. Merely resaving new copies of the
affected files fixed it for me.

Good luck,
Mark T.
