AFAIK Judy works fine on 64 bit Windows with the single change
needed to ensure it actually uses a 64 bit Word_t.

I have no proof, I haven't examined to the code, but Felix
garbage collector and some test cases using Judy Arrays
as ordinary data structures work on Windows 64.

I expect a lot of effort went into making Judy "polymorphic"
with respect to 32/64 bit choice.  The build system is a bit of
a mess (only works smoothly on Unix and auto-adapts for
the host platform in a way that makes cross-compilation hard).

The docs unfortunately emphasise use of macros, which
is archaic (most developers would use C++ these days,
and inline functions with references would be better).

But  actual design is pretty much perfect, and the code
appears to be bug free. And of course .. the performance
is phenomenal.
