From a report at The Register: “Further evidence that Microsoft intends to support AMD’s Sledgehammer chip
comes from the company’s own upcoming operating system revision, Whistler, aka
Windows XP.

Specifically, the clue is to be found in Whistler’s SDK (Software Development Kit)
and its DDK (Driver Development Kit), which reference the upcoming 64-bit
processor in a compiler directive.”
