I haven't looked into a 64-bit build on windows at all, so I'm not surprised that this fails. I will have a look once I get the 32bit version feature complete with the other OSes, but you're welcome to try making it work on mingw64 and submitting a pull request.

At the moment, I just want to test some libc calls and a few other things on current working Win7 version  and 32 bit is ok -- pls let me know if there is one I may copy.
