64 bit integer support is really a function of the compiler, not the OS.
The windows compiler certainly does support a 64 bit integer type (INT64
iirc).

There is probably a configure check somewhere (the bundled mysql client
library from 4.3 branch comes to mind) that you can use to make the decision
on 64 bit support.
