On 64-bit MS Windows we can have both 32-bit and 64-bit perls, but I don't 
know if Windows is a special case in this regard.

(This is probably not the best place to ask about this, though I would think 
there are people here who could provide a much better answer than I just did 
:-)

If it is possible, then I think you're going to need to use a different 
compiler (ie 32-bit) than the one you tried.

Cheers,
Rob
