For a long time, the installer did not include 64-bit binaries on Windows for good reason. I didn't even realize they were now being distributed (and even if I had I wouldn't have noticed rdmd was missing, as I don't use it).
I see that someone already reported this in our Bugzilla database a few months back as an enhancement. Given that the installer still adds the bin folder to the system PATH and not the bin64 folder, I wouldn't be surprised if very few people have been affected by this, meaning it likely hasn't caught the attention of anyone in a position to fix it. I'll bump the priority and make sure our pull-request manager knows about it.
Thanks for bringing it up here.
