OK I see.

So there is a bit missing from the commit message: the info that
the same driver is being used on 32 and 64 bit builds, and that is
the reason we allow compile-time ifdef things.

Can you add this to the commit message, or maybe
inline in the code, or both?

It confused me so it will confuse others.
