Yes.

No, but I'm going to do it now. The changes are minimal but are in a
hairy area and that makes me feel uneasy. This combination has never
been tested upstream either.
If we have to resort to that route (no transition), then we'd need:
1) a sourceful upload of gnustep-base with the gcc-4.7/libobjc4 fix
2) binNMUs for gnustep-gui on some architectures (amd64 only, at first
glance)
3) fix for #663388, either in gnustep-back or mknfonts.tool
