I hate to turn the conversation off on a tangent, but have you tried Fink?

www.finkproject.org

I'm not as active of an OS X user as you are, but when I've tried, 99%
of the software I use in a CLI environment work under OS X no
modifications needed, however this was back in the days before
OpenOffice.org was natively ported to Cocoa and was still running
under X11... :/
