... as long as you force -m32 in your CFLAGS/LDFLAGS ;).

See the Gentoo bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163567 for a possible workaround.

    There is a patch for building and working on amd64 in the Debian BTS. It is not yet complete, there is one error with bitmap size calculation:

    http://bugs.debian.org/398421
    http://bugs.debian.org/383336

    I hope to complete it soon, probably today.

    Uploaded the patch for nsis 2.19 here:

    http://people.debian.org/~pabs/01_64bit_fixes.patch

    I've tested this on a debian amd64 machine and it works and produces usable installers on i386 and amd64.
    Please let me know if it would be helpful to update this patch for 2.13 or for nsis CVS.

    Thanks Alin. I've added an automatic configuration test for this flag.

    Good to see you back online pabs. Welcome back! :)
    I have a few concerns about the DWORD->long patch... Talk to me on IRC about it?
