 64-bit what?  FreeBSD runs on Alpha processors, which are 64-bit. 

And sparc64, and ia64, and supports 64-bit files, ...

What about x86-64? there is a webpage about it at freebsd's site, i
subscribed to the fbsd hackers list, but really haven't found much
information about it.

Linux runs just fine on Opteron over here, I don't have time to try to
install fbsd on our machines, but it should really be pretty trivial 
to port.
