File a bug report asking for an enhancement or join an already existing 
one.  This will keep you up to date with progress or the lack of it.

Also, you have been mis-informed on the 'goodness' of 64 bitness.  The 
ability to support >4GB programs may or may not work with MacOSX/Wine.  
MacOSX has to first support > 4GB programs in 64 bit space and then Wine 
has also to do this.  Of course if you are speaking about program DATA,
