POLINK error when compiling in x64 mode

[frktons]

I'm trying to compile some C code in X64 mode, but I get
some errors from POLINK:

What am I missing?

After some searching I found the solution, I had to create
a 64 bit project before trying to compile it in 64 bit mode.  :red

And the programs compiled in 64 bit mode are about 20% faster than
their equivalent compiled in 32 bit mode.

This depends probably on the fact I'm using a X64 CPU.  :P
