The 64 bit build of ActivePerl for Windows was built using (I think) the freely available "Microsoft Windows Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2" compiler. At least that's what I'm using to build modules on Vista 64 for the 64-bit build of ActivePerl - and it works quite well.

"c:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\SetEnv.cmd" /XP64 /RETAIL

(That's assuming you've installed into C:\Program Files.)
