I have some computations that would be much more efficient, if done
with 64-bit arithmetics ("natively") than with 32-bit arithmetics
and I don't like to take the trouble/"risk" of having a 2nd OS on my
PC (I don't think currently to possess even the proper knowledge to
do that at all).
On the other hand, as outsider I surmise that providing a 64-bit
Windows version doesn't involve much work, since there is already a
32-bit version. It's essentially just a replacement of the included
gcc from the 32-bit version to the 64-bit version, isn't it?
