I am not actually maintaining the AMD64 version of the Wine port for FreeBSD, but if I understand your correctly the solution to the problem you ran into is installing the 32-bit version of binutils into the build environment for that version of Wine? If so, it might be best to update the Wiki instructions for the AMD64 accordingly and should someone submit a version of the port for AMD64 support, that would be a good BUILD_REQUIRES I guess, though I'm puzzled what the actual issue may be.
