With the same argument you could say that writing COM objects has
to be done in C++. Yet Wine has lots and lots of COM code written
all in standard C.

Agreed, writing object oriented code in C is not exactly trivial and
often quite tedious and the difference with Object-C might be even
bigger as it is likely using more advanced techniques.
