 Scott,

 Check out the Wiki:

 http://wiki.freebsd.org/Wine#head-6963d527c173e57b1567e881305b544d33435b6d

 You need to build the 32bit system:
 cd /usr/src && make buildworld installworld distribution TARGET=i386 
 DESTDIR=/compat/i386

 And then you will chroot into that and build wine.  You also would want 
 to install the 32bit version of the Nvidia driver if you use that.

 Sincerely,
 Rusty Nejdl
