Nope; no 64bit machine so I can't really do anything useful with it.
The whole point is that you can run a 64-bit VM on 32-bit hardware provided your compiler has a 64-bit integer type (long long or whatever). I made pre-compiled 64-bit VMs available for Pentium and (32-bit native) PowerPC, neither of which are 64-bit hardware.
Send money.
Not necessary. Execute 'ObjectMemory initBytesPerWord: 8', regenerate, [ recompile, fix errors, run 64-bit VM ] repeatAsNecessary.
I'm not sure about a 'both' button though. With having to re-init OM for each form it wouldn't be doable to simply write out a 32b followed by a 64 b version of each file in turn. It would have to be; do one version of all requested work (remember you can ask for entire vm, just the core+internal, just the external plugins, an individual plugin) and then re-init OM and repeat.
That's what we need. With appending '32' and '64' to the path so that each version of the VM goes into a different tree. But it's no real hassle to re-accept the path I guess, since it's mainly once per VM release that most people who care will be wanting to generate both at the same time...
