It seems this area needs more thought - the above idea sounds a good one to me.

I've tidied up the access method names in the class parser now anyway, the
instance variable names all start with an underscore, and the accessor methods
have the same name without the underscore. I hope that is standard enough...

I would just make both 'goto declaration 'and 'goto definition' go to the
definition, but disabling the 'go to declaration' option for Java is
fine too. Note that in Objective-C you can goto both the definition and
declaration of a class, as well as methods (unlike C++, for instance).

All working now - and looking very nice! I fixed a minor problem in the
Makefile.am with the gnustep.toc dependency - it now depends on two files
gnustepbase.toc.in and gnustepgui.toc.in.
