Where's that? The Nvidia site says nothing about it yet, and the 
makefile for x11/nvidia-driver still says ONLY_FOR_ARCHS=i386. I'm 
eagerly waiting for it, but I can't find anything other than a forum 
post (I don't have the address handy at this computer, but I know it's 
somewhere in the mailing list archive) from Zander at Nvidia corporation 
saying it's on its way.
