--- Comment #1 from Mark Linimon <linimon at FreeBSD.org> ---
I'll go ahead and take this one with my unofficial hat "Mr. Tier-2".

Although in theory the website says FreeBSD still supports ia64, the reality is
that ports support began to bitrot years ago.  I'm fairly sure that I was the
last person to try to do bulk builds and that's been at least 7 years.

Once ia64 support was removed from -CURRENT, I lost interest in trying to keep
its ports up to parity with even e.g. powerpc64 and sparc64.  No bugfixes have
gone in for it since then.

At this point I no longer believe it's no longer fair to pretend that we have
any ports support for ia64.  Sorry.
