My expectation is that you shouldn't have any problems with those with 1.33 
(or even better the very soon to be released 1.33.1).  And yes it should 
just be a recompile with the appropriate 64-bit compiler (both VC8 and Intel 
9 should be fine).  I'd recommend running the tests for those libs that 
you're using once just to make sure, but I wouldn't anticipate any issues.
