It's not currently possible, and isn't very high on the priority list 
for most of us.  There are a few projects just starting up to try to 
provide GTK+ and Cocoa support, but nothing you could use.

The best native-widget Smalltalk I know of is Dolphin, which is 
Windows-only and quite reasonably priced.
