There has been talk on this list of a 32-bit emulator for freebsd-amd64,
so I assume a 32-bit version of MySQL could be run through that.

So there is a 64-bit version of the MySQL server for Linux, but not for
FreeBSD yet.  Has anyone tried compiling the MySQL server from source on
freebsd-amd64 to get a native 64-bit version?  My dual Opteron box has
not arrived yet, so I don't have any way to test such a thing, but am
VERY curious what a production environment is to do about MySQL server
on freebsd-amd64?
