Hi All,

There has been one major missing piece of i386-wine.  The ability for the port 
to "build" and install under amd64 (and thus to appear in the official repos 
of FreeBSD).  Since the Port's Collection does not support cross compiling 
this is quite "impossible".  

However, there is precedent.  The misc/compat ports are essentially binary 
ports and I propose doing the same thing for i386-wine: compile the packages 
on my system, upload the packages to LOCAL and have the port repackage those 
binaries when installing under amd64.  

Although that is a simple process the only problem is that when i386-wine is 
being built under i386 the port is a slave port while under amd64 it is the 
master.  This requires the port to do it's own bootstrapping.  

So, please see attached, for review.  

Regards
