   Not as far as I know. The code is 64-bit clean on Linux platforms,
but it makes the assumption that sizeof(long) == sizeof(void *) in
several places, which is true on Linux but not on Win64.

   Also, the preferred way to build Win32 binaries of Elk has been
through cross-compilation on Linux. Since there is no mingw64 on my
platform for now, we would also need a Visual Studio or MSYS build
procedure.
