Re: cannot run setup64.exe without admin privileges (even if renamed foo.exe)

do you mean I can only build the 32bit version on i686 bits and the
64bit version on x86_64 and in both case the binary is called
setup.exe after running make?
This means I cannot build the x86_64 version from a i686 cygwin. Is
that correct?
