Wine?

A search through the archives says that wine will only work in 32-bit
mode.  Of course, I only went searching for this *after* I slogged
through trying to add FreeBSD support to signal_x86_64.c
(diff attached in case anybody wants it).  Then the build started
dying in the rpc code because it was being compiled 64-bit.

If it is truly the case that wine must be built 32-bit, then is it
possible to setup a 32-bit FreeBSD in a chroot someplace, and
build/install the relavant ports there? 

Also, on a somewhat related note, is Linux emulation (of 32-bit ELF)
on par with i386 these days? 

Thanks,

Drew
