[issue13965] Windows 64-bit installer actually installing a 32-bit version

Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettinger at gmail.com> added the comment:

platform.architecture() and struct.calcsize("P") confirm that this build used 64-bits for pointers and 32-bits for ints.

This leaves the question of whether LLP64 is required to run Python on Windows or whether another memory model could have been selected during compilation (IOW, do we have to live with 32-bit ints on Windows)?
