I have now produces a snapshot of a Win64 build for AMD64 processors (also known as EM64T or x64); this is different from IA-64 (which is also known as Itanium)...
Anyway, the binaries are
http://www.dcl.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/home/loewis/python-2.5.13199.amd64.msi
This is from today's trunk. If you have general remarks/discussion, please post to python-dev. If you have specific bug reports, file them on SF. Bug fixes are particularly welcome.
Known issues:
- _ssl.pyd is not build (I get linker errors)
- some of the tests fail (in some cases, due to bugs in the test suite)
If you want to build extensions for this build using distutils, you need to
- install the platform SDK (2003 SP1 should work)
- open an AMD64 retail shell
- run the included distutils
It might be possible to drop 2) some day, but finding the SDK from the registry is really tricky.
Regards, Martin
