Yes, work is progressing on the x86_64 branch:
http://mlton.org/cgi-bin/viewsvn.cgi/mlton/branches/on-20050822-x86_64-branch/
I'll shortly be writing up a little document on where it is and where it
is going, but the short version is that the garbage collector has been
made native pointer size agnostic with configurable heap object pointer
representation. There are no known regressions with respect to the
rewritten GC and the present 32-bit compiler.
