Hi,
I found the flag in the wixobj that sets this, not that it helps but its
good know how things work.
I tried using <wixVariable> to set this at link time but the @Win64 will
not accept them unfortunately, just 'yes' or 'no'.

The help implies that this is possible, but have not been able to work
it out, I will start generating 64 bit wixlibs.

" Custom Binder Variables
You can create your own binder variables using the WixVariable element
or by simply typing your own variable name in the following format:

!(bind.VariableName)
Custom binder variables allow you to use the same .wixobj files but
specify different values when linking, similar to how localization
variables are used. You might use binder variables for different builds,
like varying the target processor architecture.
 "

Cheers
Dave

It's set by the compiler, which is why .wixlibs are platform-specific. 
In general, the linker doesn't change data, which is what would be 
required to make the bitness set at link time.
