WTF?  How do you get to this conclusion?  The OP has already been told
that it's perfectly OK to just ifdef out the NS-only code.

People who use the NS port and aren't satisfied with it should start
contributing code, because we really don't have nearly
enough contributors.  As Jan pointed out, a non-negligible fraction of
bugs fixed in the NS code are due to Jan who could only do that thanks
to the GNUstep support, so claiming that the GNUstep support is killing
the NS port is ridiculous.
