Usage of 64 bit address space.

I think it depends if other people are working on it as well.

I would consider the following levels of porting:
- good test results (20-30 failures is a good results for non i386)
- make cycle
- makepack.sh
- run the ide
- run lazarus

Of course, another thing is how good the quality of the implementation is i.e.
how good does it integrate into the existing compiler and powerpc sources.
