Actually, the interface name is reported as tun%d to the ifup script, and
qemu seems to freeze on the first packet transmit.  Other than that, no
problems so far using 32bit qemu on amd64 (I should add that I'm using it
for running reactos as a guest).  When I run my 64bit compiled version, the
tunnel name is reported correctly (tun1), and I suspect that packet transmit
would also work if qemu didn't crash with a segfault trying to execute the
first insruction.

I'd like to help with 64-bit porting.
