In theory, it shouldn't be tied to i386, but I never tested it somewhere 
else unfortunately.

Not exactly. Only the mount_reiserfs command is under BSD. The kernel

I don't know neither JFS nor XFS, but Reiser4 may be a great candidate 
too (the current port is ReiserFS 3.6 only). It sure doesn't have the 
maturity of ReiserFS but brings nice features.
