I have the installs (with unintall support) for 2.6.0 & 2.6.2 on my system, and they are both native Win64 compilers. I believe they are official installers. The 2.6.4 and 3.0.0 installers on SF.net are definitely cross-compilers. No matter, like Michael said, it is quite easy to build your own, which I did. > There is no advantage I'm a aware of to having a > "native" Win64 release compiler Well, at the moment you need to do two downloads & installs to get Win64 support. First you need to install the win32 compiler, then the win64 cross-compiler. But yes, I guess that is minor - how often does one install release compilers anyway. ;-) Thanks for the info though.
