Kai Tietz > > PS: You can find the patch in the thread "Re: PE+ and new COFF format for > x86_64 target for XP64 and Vista binaries" > (I tested it with cygwin and linux environment) The patch to binutils is posted here http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2006-09/msg00036.html We started to prepare the gnu toolchain to allow building 64bit windows applications. This so affects binutils, gcc, mingw and also cygwin. We have a bunch of this already running allowing to build native 64bit windows apps (mingw) so it is getting time to contribute our changes back to the mainline, so other people can use it for their projects. Kai Tietz is acting as lead developer for the changes to the gnu tool chain. So main discussion will go over him. We are also in the phase of signing all needed FSF assignments so all changes could safely be taken, if you are satisfied with the way they were made. As of the fact the changes are covering a big range and several projects it will for sure take a considerable amount of time and needs to be coordinated. i.A.
