I'm running GNUStep from the FreeBSD ports collection on FreeBSD 6.X.
Some configuration is required to get it all working, but should be
tolerable if you have basic sysadmin/scripting skills on FreeBSD.
GNUMail and GWorkspace work well enough for me to use them every day.
I run Mac OS-X 10.4 on my Powerbook.  I actually prefer the idea of
GNUStep on Windowmaker over running X-windows on top of Cocoa,
particularly when I run a lot of X-windows applications.

Best,
