No, I meant the 'slamr' kernel driver module, which is

I won't be able to use it with a 64-bit amd64 kernel.

This is exactly that was discussed - 'slamr' is going to be replaced by ALSA drivers. I don't know which modem you have, but recent ALSA driver (CVS version) already supports ICH, SiS, NForce (snd-intel8x0m), ATI IXP (snd-atiixp-modem) and VIA (snd-via82xx-modem) AC97 modems.

Are these all motherboard-chipset modems, or is there such a thing as an AC97-based PCI modem card?
