I think this pullreq is an improvement on the current situation, so I'm planning to apply it since we need an rc4 anyway, but after we reopen for 6.2 I think we might want to reconsider this one. The Windows builds are pretty good at flagging up nonportabilities because the host OS is so different, so I'd rather we covered the whole codebase with both win32 and win64 rather than doing only half with each. thanks -- PMM
