Do know when DragonFly would support 64-bit? Can DF easily be ported 
to AMD64 (have any of the changes the DF team to their 4.x FBSD kernel 
made this step more trivial) or does it come down to a full rewrite of 
DF for 64bit?
I believe that work on making the code support 64-bit has been done and
more is under way, however all parts are not done yet.
We have been supporting 64bit since always because FreeBSD-4 had an 
alpha port.  I think it boils down to have the MD pieces for amd64. 
That's no walk in the park though.
