You are refering to these patches that were applied to 4.7?

2013-08-16  Allin Cottrell  <cot...@wf...>

        * src/internal.c (GP_MATHERR): 1st part of win64 compatibility patch.
        The matherr() mechanism is not used by win64. It's also not used by
        current linux but it doesn't hurt to leave it in place for now.

        * src/win/wprinter.c src/win/winmain.c src/win/wtext.c src/win/wmenu.c
        src/win/wpause.c src/win/wgraph.c:
        2nd part of win64 compatability patch.  All changes are #ifdef _WIN64.

        src/win/wgnuplot.rc src/win/wgnuplot.exe.manifest64:
        The file win/wgnuplot.exe.manifest specifies the processorArchitecture
        as "X86". For an x86_64 build this must be changed to "amd64"
        (or wgnuplot.exe won't start). The manifest file is included by
        win/wgnuplot.rc. The modified wgnuplot.rc includes an alternative file
        wgnuplot.exe.manifest64 if the symbol _WIN64 is defined. This file
        simply substitutes "amd64" for "X86" in two places.

The first of those (to src/internal.c) applies without error to 4.6 also.
But the rest of it would need to be re-spun for 4.6

If you send me a patch set backported to apply against 4.6 I'd
be happy to apply it.  But please test it first, as I'm not set up
to build under windows here.
