Personally, I seriously doubt it.

given that the linux base in ports and pkgsrc is 32-bits only, there's
not even any prepackaged s/w for it.  And it doesn't appear that anyone
really needs this capability.

iow, we'd rather get chromium working natively than run it on Linux.  we
need to semaphores working for that thanks to chromium's (strange)
reliance on python.
