This is fabulous news!

One question: Will the 32-bit tool chain also be able to use the MSVC runtime and linker eventually? It would make things /a lot/ easier if both bitnesses used the same tool chain.

It's not the current plan. Frankly, I think 32 bits is rapidly becoming irrelevant on the desktop.
