Did you try with installed misc/compat6x from the Ports?

I did use some legacy binary only software which was built for 
FreeBSD 4.x on 5.x and 6.x systems with the corresponding Ports.

Eventually you also need the 32-bit libraries, if the software 
itself is not built for 64-bit. See /usr/src/tools/lib32/README 
for more informations.

Depending on how the software will be integrated into the system, 
eg. doing virus check on every file access, then it may not work.

Fabian
