Wrong OS bits size on mingw64 on Windows 10 x64

[artemshein]

Same OS, different Rubies (64-bit and 32-bit): $ uname -a MINGW64_NT-10.0 name 2.5.0(0.295/5/3) 2016-03-31 18:47 x86_64 Msys $ ruby -e 'require "os";p RUBY_PLATFORM;p OS.bits' "x64-mingw32" 64 $ ruby -e 'require "os";p RUBY_PLATFORM;p OS.bits' "i386-mingw32" 32

The only solution I found is:

def is_64bit_win?
  ENV.has_key?('ProgramFiles(x86)')
end

Ugly, but works

Yeah that's a tricky one, since it's basically "os differs from runtime" and I never did figure out an awesome solution there. Maybe another method "OS.os_bits" LOL?
