Is there a list, or a database (similar to pcidatabase.com), that

the processors based upon the "cpu family", "model", and "stepping"
found in /proc/cpuinfo?
For example:
cpu family 15
model 6
stepping 5
The wiki[1,2] has a good list of processors from AMD/Intel but the
listings are all based on a "market name" and "stepping", but their
stepping is a "letter - number" where /proc/cpuinfo only shows a
"number".
The main thing I am trying to determine is if the CPU is a 64bit
processor, and the only true way would be to look up the processor,
correct? (uname only indicates what kernel is installed, not what is
possible)
Not exactly the answer you are after, most likely, but I've used
lshw lately to figure out the nitty-gritties of the hardware I'm
on. I prefer the information it provides over that of /proc/cpuinfo
I wrote a little tip about it in my blog some time ago:

I just noticed that my blog entry only shows the memory info. Here
is some sample CPU output from an older box I have kicking around:
*-cpu

Compared with the output of cat /proc/cpuinfo on the same box:
