Might it be easier to patch up AVRA?

http://avra.sourceforge.net/

Avra with some patches listed here would build amforth at some revisions. 
I was even able to do it back in amforth 2 or 3.x days and I'm not all 
that capable a programmer.

At that time I was living in a freeBSD / Mac world and couldn't run wine 
on 64 bit platforms so I was sort of forced to do something.
