What I am referring to is the 'x86_64-pc-mingw64' triplet used in this
config.guess file.  Actual there is no support for the mingw64 triplet
part.  Neither in binutils, nor in gcc.  So this 64 is bogus and
should be replaced by 32.
Longterm this mingw32 and mingw64 should be replaced simply by mingw.
this 32/64 is just bogus and is already covered by the architecture
part of triplet (i?86/x86_64).
