I would be interested to learn how. Because of similar issues we got rid of a 
shell script on Win64 because UnxUtil zsh.exe doesn't run from the 64bit 
cmd.exe.

Also, when in a 64bit VS shell, I now need to run the 32bit nmake.exe because 
otherwise my 32bit flex.exe will crash. I have tried directly, with bat files, 
cmd /c etc.

Regards,
Arjen
