I was too quick to bash Windows -- it turns out you can have directories
in PATH containing 32-bit and 64-bit DLLs and the dynamic loader will use
the correct version depending on the application.

So the solution in case of the XSD .msi installer is to simply add both
bin/ and bin64/ to PATH. I have built the new installer for you to try:

Can you let me know if it does the right thing in your situation?
