I have had many test sites with this setup on cherokee.

The old version of cherokee had an automated setup for all the rewrite
rules for wordpress, not sure if that's still in there. If not, I'm
sure someone else on here has them on hand, or a quick way to get
them.

As for subdomain setup. It's as easy as setting your host match in the
virtual host settings to accept the wild card that you want. There are
many options for host matching in cherokee, it's one of the best
features. Well, there's plenty of great features, but the host
matching is one of the more robust out there, and it is pretty self
explanatory as well.

Of course to do this, you need a wildcard on your DNS as well:
*.example.com IN  A example.com

So... with you DNS wildcard, your virtual host with matching, and with
your wordpress rules set up.
The rest is just following wordpress's tutorial to setup the wordpress
config correctly for multisite.
