Details:

* Added support for win64. Exceptions are not working and the stack trace
feature is not included yet as it seems not working, since it's not picked up
by the debugger(related with the exceptions...).
* Added register aliases (for example for argument registers) to make it
easier to write generic code.
* Added support for a plug-able memory allocator for code memory. It enables
developers to support freeing of code memory, something the build-in memory
manager does not.
* Added jit_function_free(), which allows you to free a compiled jit function
with all associated resources. Because of this, the way float constants are
stored / initialized has been changed. The 'new' method might consume a few
extra bytes but is easier to manage and is cleaner in my opinion.

When you compile with RED_BLACK_DEBUG defined, some windows specific debug
statements are included, so currently it's only useful under mingw. It can
dump the red-black tree in a format that's compatible with graphviz
(http://www.graphviz.org).
