gnustep's make builds shared by default, at least on other linux systems.

As you suggested, I "forced" a shared build issuing
make shared=yes
But it does not help.


There are some quirks, for example, I explicitly need to configure with:
--with-ffi-library=/usr/lib

I'm not used to it: stuff in /usr/lib is usually found automatically. I 
wonder if this is a hint.
