Hi!
Some folks are trying to build Libgcrypt for Windows 64 bit. Let me
state it clearly:
W64 IS NOT YET SUPPORTED
You may run in all kinds of problems, the worst of it being the lack of
a serious entropy gathering module. The rndw32.c module some may use is
not appropriate for w64! Annoying CERTs with that is not a good idea,
either.
Simply throwing a compiler on some software on a new platform may result
in a runable binary - but there is no guarantee that it will work as
expected.
Shalom-Salam,
Werner
