Comment:
The addition of -framework Foundation is required to allow dynamically loaded modules to have access to the Objective-C runtiem under OSXS.

This *may* also be required under Darwin/OSX, but-- if that is the case-- it will be submitted as a separate patch once I restore my OSX work environment and can verify that it is the case.

Comment:
If you add an option that is required for something, then it would be good to add a comment to indicate what the something is. Also, are you sure that linking with the Foundation framework is absolutely necessary? Would it be possible for extension modules to link with the framework themselves if they need it?
