I'd start by looking at the older PureDarwin releases (puredwarin.googlecode.com). They had a patch for objc4 that eliminated the dependency on autozone. They got removed from the distribution after Apple open-sourced autozone, though. If you can't find 'em, I'll e-mail the diffs to you. I'd start by applying the patches, then try to get objc4 ported. Contrary to what someone mentioned earlier, it -does not- depend on Foundation. It does however depend on CoreFoundation, which is open source and has been successfully compiled on Linux... That's not how I interpret this comment from objc_exception.m (in obj4 project): // quick and dirty exception handling code // default implementation - mostly a toy for use outside/before Foundation // provides its implementation // Perhaps the default implementation should just complain loudly and quit And to complete my assertion. There is a bunch of runtime initialization function (objc_setForwardHandler, objc_setEnumerationMutationHandler, etc.) that are called by the foundation to properly initialize the runtime. And note also that the runtime expect mach-o binaries (you will have to write an elf loader on Linux). And If you are lucky, the Mac OS and Linux i386 ABI are compatible, else you would have to make sure the assembly functions properly handle the differences.
