I agree and would also have likely not even tried if it wasn't for
reading on FreeBSD's own wiki (amonst other places) that it should
actually work fine. I've tried various versions and always get the
same result:

  http://wiki.freebsd.org/Wine

  "FreeBSD currently lacks support for 32bit ports on a 64bit system.
   However, with a little bit of effort you can build and use the 32 bit
   wine executable on an amd64 system (Diablo 2 works just fine)."

His instructions show an essentially identical setup to mine (apart
from the fact that he's running a chroot and I'm running a jail).

Even any ideas on how to debug this would help.
