I've been out of the loop for quite some time.  Has there been any

while ago, admittedly) I could not get it to work.

No progress at all so far. According to the ticket there is a working mingw port now:

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/1884

There is apparently support for Win64 in libffi (not sure if this patch has been merged or not):

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2009-06/msg00782.html

So the main remaining difficulty would be implementing the Win64 C call ABI in the native code generator.
