It looks like the AMD/EM64T Windows has months to go in beta.  We've been 
running 32-bit cygwin on the 64-bit Windows on Intel CPUs (EM64T and 
IA64).  No complaints, except visibility of Windows environment variables 
to cygwin is intermittent.  We don't think that's the fault of cygwin, nor 
is it unique to the 64-bit OS.
