Eric / Jeff,

Right, you should be able to use the makefile.vc though you may
need to fiddle with the OPTFLAGS or other settings in
proj\nmake.opt for 64bit.  I haven't tried it on win64 myself so if
anyone has a chance to try it that would be helpful.

BTW, I'm hoping to promote the release to final today.  I will likely
add a few items to the NEWS file first but not otherwise change
the package.

Best regards,
