It may be possible that I will reduce the .zip package to contain only
the 32 bit files organized in a way that it can be installed on top of
the Gogins distribution. Also, if future versions of the installer do
include optimized 32 bit binaries in a way that both single and double
precision can be used in the same installation, the .zip may become no
longer useful, and discontinued.
