Note that OpenSSL's "Configure" is not autoconf-based, so the usual
triplets are irrelevant (and not used for the other platforms either).

OpenSSL developpers seem to rather consider this a mingw_w64
bug, at least I got one reply on that list indicating that MS samples
normally explicitly include both headers...

I just tried to change the original "mingw" (for 32 bit) configuration
line
as little as possible. But no, I didn't find any other gcc based project
targetting Win64 either. BTW, what platform exactly are you targetting:
x86_64 only, or (T)itanic (aka IA64) as well? In the longer run, I
mean.
ATM it's appears to obviously be x86_64 only.

Well that's a bit of an exaggeration - I only made it compile, I
currently
have no idea whether or how well it works - that's the nice thing about
a
cross-compiler... ;-)
At least, it's not using existing assembly code, which certainly is not
so
good, but once it does at least compile, that might give other people
(more
fluent with assembler and it's error messages) a better starting point.
Regards,
Stefan
