Comment (by robe):

 --Putting in Mark Cave-Ayland correspondence -- I'm sure he won't mind me
 sharing this :)

 You want the MingW-W64 project:
 http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/. Any 64-bit compiler can create
 a 64-bit DLL and so it doesn't matter whether it's VC++ or MingW (gcc).
 Note I actually donated to the mingw-w64 project a while back, and so have
 corresponded personally with both Kai and Nightstrike - they are both
 really helpful and active at bugfixes, which is sadly not what can be said
 for the original MingW project. It's also good to see that they are
 working on cutting edge gcc (4.4.1 in this case).
