Comment:

 If we want to support this in Cabal then we need to know how to build
 objective C modules. Personally I have no idea, I've never used objective
 C.

 So supposing you listed the source objective C modules, what would Cabal
 need to do to build them? Is it any different from building C code?

 For reference, see `constructCcCmdLine` in `Distribution/Simple/GHC.hs`.
