This is mostly correct -- I do like to think of TDM-GCC as a bit more of a different breed of compiler, and recommend one take the same precautions when mixing TDM-GCC DLLs with other compilers' that one would take when mixing MSVC with GCC. Nevertheless, TDM-GCC is still based on GCC and anyone who has used another GCC distribution should be able to use TDM-GCC without significant changes. > His latest update does provide an updated mingw-w64, although I am > unsure if it's trunk or v2 or v1.

For the benefit of the original poster -- TDM-GCC solves this by giving the 64-bit runtime DLLs different names, a measure which has not been adopted upstream, though I feel it should be. If all the jargon hasn't scared you off yet, Christer, TDM-GCC may meet your needs for a native bi-arch (my preferred terminology over multilib) toolchain, and you can check it out at <http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/>.
