I have a patch for ctypes for Windows x64.  It cannot be integrated in the
Python SVN repository in the Python 2.5 branch because of the feature freeze,
so Python 2.6 would be the earliest.

I intend to release a separate Win x64 ctypes version soon (my plan is to
release this when Python 2.5.1 will be released, but this is totally
arbitrary); I still have to run more tests with it.
