64 bit Eclipse installation reports win32 (!!!) [message #1829192]

Hi, I installed 64 bit Eclipse and Java, but it is using Win32 with Python. I can't figure out how that's even possible, so any help would be appreciated:

All such constants are defined in this class:

It's kind of a confusing name/value, but I suppose historical and 64 bit Windows does in fact still run 32 bit applications as well. In any case, it's the -arch value that tells you it's on 64 bit hardware:
