Nothing special which you wouldn't do on a 32 bit system.

I use the the (unofficial) git repository at 
http://repo.or.cz/w/vim_mainline.git to get the sources with all 
official patches applied. If you want to apply them manually then you 
should apply all patches.

Read the Makefile in the src directory. Many compile options are 
described there.
