It is definitely 64-bit. sizeof(HANDLE)==8.
So yes, it looks completely broken. I guess Windows doesn't actually
*assign* you a handle larger than 2^32 until you actually ahve that
many open handles. Typical values on my test system (win64) comes out
at around 4000 in all tests.

Yes. I actually thought we had one. Dave, weren't you going to set one up?
