For now I have hacked GetPlatform and GetArch to return the  
appropriate values for win64 builds but I am running into another  
problem. It appears that the EnvironmentBuilder is specifically  
configured for MSVS 8 which causes problems when trying to build with  
MSVS 9. Any thoughts on potential fixes? Can we use the default  
behaviour of SCons 1.2.0 for MSVS builds and not support older  
versions of SCons? Thanks.
