+- Vim is ported to the X86_64 architecture
+	- IMPORTANT: because of the getline function name used in stucts like in ex_cmds.h
+	on X86_64 the CRTL_VER is kept under 80500000 level. The proper solution would be
+	to rename the getline function to something else in the struct (and in all places
+	it is used) - and avoiding to use POSIX functions in structs, but this change would
+	impact on all other operating systems. (added the the VMS TODO list)
