It appears that the current port of oracle8-client in the ports tree
only support i386

$ grep ARCH /usr/ports/databases/oracle8-client/Makefile 
ONLY_FOR_ARCHS= i386

As of now, I don't have access to an amd64 machine and hence I've no
idea what would happen if you tried to use the current oracle8 client
libraries on it.
