Windows 64 Bit Edition version?

Windows 64 Bit Edition version?

[Bob Vandette - Java Software Engineering]

Do you by any chance have an Itanium port of the Cygwin
product?

We currently use the MKS tools to provide sed, sh, awk and
other Unix tools compatibility for cross platform portability.
Since these are x86 binaries, they run a lot slower on the Windows
64 bit Edition (Itanium).  I'm looking for a native port of these
tools to help speed up our large builds.

Thanks,

Judging by a quick check of the gcc site (http://gcc.gnu.org/), looks like 
the answer is no.  The current efforts seem to be focused on Linux, 
understandably.

For starters, you'd need an IA64+Windows port of gcc. Is there one 
available yet?

I haven't seen any traffic on this list about 64 bit versions of Cygwin.
If there's any efforts going on "out there", they haven't been communicated
to the Cygwin community.
