Xiaofeng: BaseTools Windows Makefile (BaseTools\Source\C\Makefile) sets ARCH = IA32. It means BaseTools C tool passes IA32 arch only in Windows OS. I don't try building it with X64 arch. You can update ARCH=X64, and try building BaseTools with 64bit VS compiler. If you meet with warning or error, you can try to clean up them.
