I just posted a follow-up to that thread, but there's a question for
the list. Mingw-cross-env has a lot of packages and I suspect a
full-blown 64-bit version will be a long term exercise. In order to
prioritise, it would be helpful to know what is driving the need for
64-bit applications.

Is there a subset of packages that would be useful to people now, or
does it boil down to the major gui toolkits?

Thanks,
