I started a wiki page on the issues related to windows, 64 bits and
python 2.6 (those issues are somewhat related at some level):

If you want to help, you can try solving one problem. In particular, if
you know how to build ATLAS with Visual studio (for 64 bits support), it
would be really helpful,
