Yes.

I believe this won't be sufficient, for GCC also has gcc/config.gcc. (Both
bento and my tests on panther confirmed that the GCC port really does not
build on x86_64.)

In case of GCC, as soon as someone (and I had asked obrien twice already)
fixes that upstream, the gcc33 and gcc34 ports will be fixed within a
couple of days by my next update.  This is also much better, because it
allows developers to build CVS GCC without any FreeBSD-specific hacks.


(In any case, shouldn't amd64-freebsd be renamed back to x86_64-freebsd,
given Intel's announcement two days ago?)
