Shall we have 64-bit Windows release in the near future, say 2.2.10? (btw, we are really delighted to see that now APR has a *clean* compile on x64 Windows.)
I don't even see the need to wait for 2.2.10. It's a matter of deciding what httpd is bound to. msvcr71? 80? 81? 90? msvcrt? There are arguments for each of these cases. I've actually put the question of recycling and combining binary artifacts to MS Visual Studio engineers, face to face. The response so far is a puzzled look (of "why would you want/need/care to do that?") and no solution appears in sight, but they did take note that some of us are increasingly frustrated with the mess this creates. The same question will apply to 2.4.0 when it's time to roll those binaries. Thoughts and opinions?
