I think I have a pretty vanilla Visual Studio Express 2012 for Desktop and:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin\x86_amd64>.\cl
Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 17.00.51106.1 for x64
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

usage: cl [ option... ] filename... [ /link linkoption... ]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin\x86_amd64>

Am I misunderstanding the discussion here?

Isn't that the 64-bit tool suite?

Does anyone care if the compiler is a 64 bit binary itself?
