That's a good place to point to my extended "how to port to 64 bit" FAQ,
starting here:

Please read this first.
Basically, what you see here...

...is a typical type conflict. ULONG is a Windows type defined as
unsigned long in the Win32 API. The Win32 data model is LLP64, so
unsigned long is 4 bytes. However, Cygwin is LP64, so unsigned long is
8 bytes. Therefore the `typedef unsigned long ULONG;' is wrong for 64
bit. Either drop the definition entirely, or redefine it matching the
data model:
#ifdef __LP64__
typedef unsigned int ULONG;
#else
typedef unsigned long ULONG;
#endif
