Sorry, this may off topic. But I want just to inform, that there is 64-bit
gcc (together with the binutils) support for window allready present until
version 4.3. You can find a crt and headerset for the target
x86_64-pc-mingw32 on sf.net in project mingw-w64. It is currently an alpha
version. FX compiler its mingw cross compiler version using this crt.
