[patch] Support for x64 Windows

[Kai Tietz-2]

Hi,

this patch (a bit rough and need some final cleaning up and some
extension to the test run makefile for allowing CROSS here) enables
pthread to be build for the x86_64-pc-mingw32 target.

If there is interest on this patch, some review would be fine. I'll
prepare a proper patch file (with ChangeLog) after review. This patch
is mainly about 2 general issues. Correct the assumption that
sizeof(int)==sizeof(void *) and sizeof(long)==sizeof(void *), using
InterlockedExchangeCompare & co for pointers (I am using here the
..Pointer variant), and an proper check for timespec.

Thanks in advance,
Kai

I don't have the technology to confirm the patch with a build and run,
but I will run an eye over it ASAP.

Regards.

Hi,

I'd like to use pthreads-w32 with a 64 bits windows... and well i'm a
not a guru with coders tools like "patch" (svn and so on...)

it seems that this patch is not applied in the cvs tree, could you
explain me how to do ?

do i need to install cygwin tools, or msys ?
is it possible to do it without ?
how do i modify the nmakefile to be 64 bits able ?

well, i know i ask a lot, but i'm feeling unuseful ... i'd like to help!
just tell me how :)

the 64bits step is very important for a lot of applications, and this
library is so useful, i'd like to continue to use a so clean thread code
with 64 bits platforms.

with my best regards,

michel pacilli
