761 Version 8.2 768 Version 9.0 (2023 Nov 27)
769 - Vim is ported to the X86_64 architecture
770 - IMPORTANT: because of the getline function name used in stucts like in ex_cmds.h
771 on X86_64 the CRTL_VER is kept under 80500000 level. The proper solution would be
772 to rename the getline function to something else in the struct (and in all places
773 it is used) - and avoiding to use POSIX functions in structs, but this change would
774 impact on all other operating systems. (added the the VMS TODO list)
