I do my PhD research in Squeak, and use Linux to do it.  Ian seems
keenly interested in Squeak/unix.  The Georgia Tech crowd runs most of
the swikis on Linux and Solaris.  So, there is plenty of interest and
some of that interest is willing to do a little maintanance as well. 
You don't need to worry.

Incidentally, you do sometimes need to look for patches, e.g. to run
Squeak/Unix with a 3.7 image.  Official updates are often separated by a
few months.
