using the latest releases of GNUstep, or I guess you could also use SVN, works 
like a charm for me on OpenBSD amd64.

I don't know about Solaris, but I guess on CentOS, it should just work the same 
way.
Or you may just use OpenBSD, and the GNUstep packages available there ;)
I guess FreeBSD packages should also be in a good shape.
