The back end that Riccardo refers to was experimental, was not finished, and has not been maintained for some years. The most recent versions of Cairo have a very nice OpenGL back end, however, so tweaking the Cairo back end or Opal to use OpenGL for rendering would be as simple as requesting a different surface type. Of course, OpenGL is not a windowing system, it's just a graphics API, so you can't really have an OpenGL back end for GNUstep - you can have an X11 or Windows back end that uses OpenGL for rendering, but window management and input handling still have to be done via the underlying windowing system.
