The functionality needs to be added. Patches attached to feature requests in the bug tracker are always welcome. :-)

Basically, we need some bit-ness detection code in the Modules/NSIS.template.in file.

	My company is trying to package our software on Windows using NSIS in 32-bit and 64-bit but the install path always assumes that the package is 32-bit.  If you are on a 64-bit machine, 32-bit and 64-bit NSIS installers use "C:\Program Files (x86)" as the install path.  The proper way for a 64-bit installer is to have the path be "C:\Program Files" on a 64-bit machine and not allow an install on a 32-bit machine.  Is there any support for this in CMake or does the functionality need to be added?

	 

	Thanks,
