When I wanted to replicate my cygwin installation from a 32-bit machine to
another 32-bit machine, it was straightforward.  I would simply reinstall
all installed packages, but have the downloaded packages got to a folder
which I then burn to CD.

However, my next machine is a 64-bit machine.  So I have to use the 64-bit
setup.  Is there an almost-as-painless way to replicate the 64-bit version
of the packages that I have installed on my 32-bit machine?

The 32-bit packages and set up run fine on a 64 bit processor.
You just don't get as large a memory space for the programs
when they are running.
