It seems we've been very close to having 64bit support for some time.
All we need were three keys to the puzzle:

1) A flag in the ISS file that tells InnoSetup to install as a native
64 bit application on x64 machines
2) Bundle the 32 and 64 bit ThgShell.dlls and install the correct version
3) Bundle the 32 and 64 bit TortoiseOverlay packages and install the
correct version

I've done #1 and #2 and have built an installer that works correctly
on x32 and x64.  By installing the x64 overlays on my Vista64 machine
I was able to get a nearly functional THG setup.  I strangely enough
get overlays on folders but not files.

It will take some time to work through the bugs get this all properly
automated, but the nightly builds starting tonight should at least
partially work on x64 machines.

Thanks to Sune Foldager for discovering issue #1.
