Nice!

 So the replacements in files/patch-aa in the port didnt work for amd64?
(the ones #if defined(_BSD) && defined(USE_X86LDOUBLE))

 Samba is needed for the -smb <dir> option (export a local dir to guest),
if you don't use that you can omit samba thats true.

 So we need different versions of these for i386 hosts?
And how about 4.x i386 hosts?  Obviously the port should still
run on those too.
