On a similar note, the reason I was looking for 64-bit Vim, is that I
believe I previously had problems with Python within Vim when I tried
to use my normal installation of 64-bit Python.  I had been getting
64-bit Vim from
https://bintray.com/veegee/generic/vim_x64/#
but there currently is no build for Vim 8.

Is there a list of the known third-party Vim builds online?
