Details:

See this thread:
http://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/MXE-mingw-quot-unknown-type-name-int64-t-quot-with-enable-64-when-compiling-mex-files-tt4666187.html

In this thread "Rafael" suggested a fix that helps to get more OF packages to
install on Octave built with --enable-64.
I tried the fix in the last weeks; AFAICS it doesn't have adverse effects on
Octave on 32- and 64 bit Linux and Windows, and indeed helps to get more OF
packages building on 64-bit MinGW Octave.

I'll upload the changeset in a next post.
