[vwnc] Win 64 and Cairographics

The visual improvement offered by Cairo/Pango is impressive and we have a
big chunk of our rewrite done with only a few hours effort.

However around 25% of our customers are running on win64 machines. Thus an
important issue for us concerns Cairo on win64. Can it run there as a 32 bit
app so the current 32 bit Visualworks could still be used on win64 machines.

Thanks for the reply. We have a win 64 machine and we will give it a run in
a few weeks. Hopefully there will be some stuff worth showing also later in
the summer.

It works as-is on my Win XP 64 and I tested it in a Vista 64 VM as well, you shouldn't have any problems.
