Yes -- the code listed above is, in and of itself, the actual test case 
and, therefore, should be encapsulated in a test case such that it 
fails [outside of the regular parse errors] in the context of a test 
case.

I had a look at the code and added a test to ensure that a call to 
super works.   I also made a handful of other minor adjustments.

All of this should make support for GnuStep *a lot* easier to pull 
together as GnuStep includes an implementation of the Foundation 
classes.

The tests also make for a very simple and concise place for folks new 
to the bridge to see the various features that it implements.  Of 
course, for truly frightening testing potential, we could also use 
doctest....
