About the platform.py changes: if someone could provide the return values of sys.getwindowsversion() for 64bit versions of Windows XP and Vista, I could add support for it (don't have a 64bit version of Windows available to check myself).
This is the output of a 32-bit Python running on "Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, Version 2003, Service Pack 2":

Thank you ! Anyone with a 64bit Vista ? Or even better: a page documenting what to expect from the system call behind the sys.getwindowsversion() API ? -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Mar 20 2008)

FYI: I added winreg and sys.getwindowsversion() support in r61674. platform.machine() and .processor() will now use the environment variables PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE and PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER where available (should work on Windows XP and later). According to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/888731 platform.machine() will return "AMD64", so I guess the "x64" string is just a marketing name for 64-bit platforms on Windows and the underlying system uses "AMD64" as machine type name. For x86 processors, you'll now get "x86" on Windows XP and later. For Itanium processors, you should get "IA64" according to this WOW64 page: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384274(VS.85).aspx -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Mar 20 2008)
