I am glad to see it. Big thanks to the Cygwin team for working to make it happen. I'll be glad to support 32- and 64-bit flavors of my packages, assuming that they build correctly in 64 bits, and that there are clear and reasonably simple instructions for maintainers on how to provide both sets of packages. I don't know much about cross-compiling but can learn. In my ideal world, I'd just set a global option in my ~/.cygport.conf, and cygport would handle the rest for me, building 32- and 64-bit packages from the same source and setup.hint. Andrew
