PyPy GSoC: 64-bit JIT working, but GC is slow

Finally, I have a working 64-bit JIT in my branch, although only with the slow Boehm garbage collector.

Next week, I will start work on adding 64-bit support to the asmgcc root finding strategy in order to make use of one of PyPy's faster, preferred garbage collectors.

Go man go! I'm really looking forward to trying PyPy on one of my projects, and I need 64 bit for it because of the amount of data it uses.

Incredibly cool, contratulations! And good luck with asmgcc.

Excellent. Just downloaded PyPy and found that I cannot (yet) use the Jit. Looking forwards to this. Thanks.
