If you want to run 32 bit Windows programs you should have a look at:
http://wiki.freebsd.org/Wine#head-6963d527c173e57b1567e881305b544d33435b6d

Support for 64 bit Windows programs has been added in Wine 1.2, but as
far as I know, nobody has ported or even tested that on FreeBSD yet.

 Umm, wouldn't it be a lot easier to just modify the makefile and
 change ONLY_FOR_ARCHS to amd64 instead of i386?  I need to know if
 that will destroy my system.

You would end up with an amd64 version of Wine that only runs 64 bit
programs, which is untested on FreeBSD and probably not what you want.
