Definitely a newbie in reading mumbling without context. Here in detail:

What kind of support? Do you sponsor the development? Do you have a fork which 
also support compiling for 64-bit windows? Do you aggree that his branch 
should be merged or do you just want that MXE supports 64-bit builds?

How is this relevant to my question or the "discussion"? You just push this 
elephant into the room and never introduce anything.

For what statement is this relevant? Is it good or bad? Who are these people? 
Do they have any important role in the MXE development team? Why are they 
comparing MXE with anything? Against what are they comparing MXE?
