In general, I favor keeping things checked in, but in keep the patch

the trunk.

Hi Damjan;

I personally think it would be better to start by upgrading MSVC, but in 
any case...

Here are some hints from LibreOffice:

English Dictionaries gives an error while attempting to download

Hello!

As usual, I have updated the English Dictionaries, and it gives an error
while attempting to download.

Could someone take a look at the issue?:

Thank you!

For the record, the error is "502 Bad gateway" (just now tried).

Speaking with my process engineers hat on this sounds like the best
alternative for the time being. It allows the Windows build bots to
continue to create binaries that can be used for testing on any Windows
system supported by the project as well as maintaining revision control
on the 64 bit patch.

The patch affects 4 files and is only 254 lines long in total, so I've just
placed it into main/solenv/win64/win64.patch together with a readme file
referring people to the wiki page (
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Win64_port) where I've described how to
apply it and start the Win64 build.
