That appears to be correct. I consider that an oversight on the WG's part.
Chibi actually supports this, and I would urge you to support it too.

I'm glad to hear about this! I downloaded and built it with VC++ 2010.
I note that even on my Win64 system it is a Win32 program, or at least

Hiding the problem behind a stub library is probably the best work-around.
I would recommend that you grab the (chibi test) library and rewrite

for the large language.
