Well, that might not be the best strategy (or none at all) ...

Ok, so its trying to set key 'misc' to 'Misc', but on what object.  
You need to log 'self' and '[self class]'.

Not sure why GNUstep logs that, I would say its a (minor) bug. If  
NSData can't read a file it will return nil, so the calling code  
knows. (maybe errors other than 'No such file' should be logged)

Well, maybe its due to the way the exception is raised.

Since OGo works mostly fine on MacOS, I would say no :-)
