FW: /dev/sg* for AMD64

Can I get a response from SOMEONE on getting /dev/sg* working for the amd64
platform so 
that tools such as Seagate's seatools linux32 binary will work on FreeBSD?

(I was able to get a replacement drive without it this time, but sometimes
seagate, and other manufacturers get pissy about running THEIR tool).

Thanks!

Scott,
     Back before 7.0, you added /dev/sg* for linux compatibility, but the
64 bit stuff didn't work.   Has there been any progress on getting it
work with amd64?
     I have a seagate drive that's giving me flack, and they want me to 
run their linux tool, but it won't run on my box due to the above.

     If I need to file a PR, please let me know.

I'm on 7-STABLE.

Thanks!
