I had to stop building a 64 bit binary due to a bug in the Python
interface (it crashes when built as 64 bit). Since I haven't been
able to debug the problem I instead switched back to building 32 bit
binaries.

Is there a reason why you need a 64 bit binary?

Building MacVim via MacPorts does build a very stable 64Bit version. May be that does help you?

Just Follow the instructions on http://www.macports.org,
* install MacPorts for mountain lion
* Install the latest XCode and the optional command line utilities
* Open Terminal
* Issue 'sudo port install MacVim'

If all works cleanly, You'll have a 64 bit version in /Applications/MacPorts/ on your machine.

Hope that helps,
André

The port (listed as "vim" some three-fourths down the page of
http://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=category&substr=editors&page=2&pagesize=50
) is currently version 7.3.615 which is reasonably recent (published
by Bram on 25 July).
