As long as there is no generic 80 bit float support in the compiler, there is no need to discuss anything else.
Yes. And unlike some other compilers, we don't exhaust our 32-bit address space during compilation or linking of very large programs, so the fact that it is a cross-compiler should be irrelevant to the user.
Regarding ease of installation, we're planning to release the Windows version of FPC 3.2.2 as a single install package, that supports both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows - it will include the 32-bit native and 32-bit to 64-bit crosscompiler, so it will be a single download for both Win32 and Win64.
The necessary changes for the that are already committed to trunk, but it will need testing during the beta and release candidate phases.
