Right. But there's no 64-bit MinGW support yet. nt/gmake.defs needs some changes, and after that, whoever bites this bullet will need to find solutions for incompatibilities between MinGW64 and MinGW32 headers, of the kind reported by =C3=93scar. Volunteers donating patches are welcome. And thanks to Fabrice for his pioneer work which I believe took care of most, if not all, problems with 64-bit Windows build per se (data types etc.).
