Drivers generally use the same makefiles (if you mean a module makefile) for 
both i386 and amd64.  If you want to cross-build a driver you will need a 
cross toolchain (e.g. 'make toolchain TARGET=amd64').  You can then either 
cross-build a kernel whose config includes your module, or you can do this to 
cross-build just your module:

% cd /path/to/world
% make buildenv TARGET=amd64
% cd sys/modules/<foo>
% make
