Do it the other way around. RHEL, CentOS, and Scientific Linux 6.x all
work well with the "VirtualBox" and other virtualization servers,
though VirtualBox has the best interface for freeware. And OpenBSD
runs quite happily in virtualization. I use it for testing OpenBSD
tools in a primarily RHEL environment, and even use VirtualBox for
easy virtualization in places where I'm only handed a Windows desktop
or laptop.

You don't get the same vaunted OS security or kernel performance on
the serverr, but you do get access to other familiar tools and layouts
that may not be available in OpenBSD yet. (I do note the availability
of recent tools I care about in 4.9, such as httpd-2.x and
libreoffice-3.x and subversion-1.6.x. Good!!!!)
