New 64bit packages

[Corinna Vinschen]

I just uploaded

ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwin/64bit/binary-toolchain-x86_64-pc-linux-x-x86_64-pc-cygwin-20130221.tar.xz

and

ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwin/64bit/install/base-cygwin-toolchain-install-first-20130221.x86_64.tar.xz

The major change here is a bugfix by Yaakov, whereas the return type of
crucial functions like read or write, ssize_t, was still defined as a 4
byte int, rather than an 8 byte long.

As I outlined in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2013-02/msg00135.html
this has probably not as much consequences as suspected, due to the
friendly 32 bit behaviour of the x86_64 CPU.

I also uploaded a new ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwin/64bit/bootstrap.sh
which creates the usr/bin and usr/lib symlinks, removes the iconv.h and
unctrl.h headers, and installs cygwin1.dbg.
