It's unlikely. I do not have a time to reimplement WinSCP using a different toolkit.
Martin, is there any chance you'd consider moving to a free-as-in-beer build environment? I pulled down the source to see if I could cajole it into compiling against a Win64 target, but I don't have Embarcadero C++ Builder XE6 Professional. I imagine most people don't. I do have Visual Studio 2015 (because it's free). I didn't bother checking the other requirements.
Also, in response to your note above about there not being a good reason to make an x64 build of WinSCP available - Microsoft have been providing Server (optionally) without WoW64 since at least Server 2008 R2. Leaving out WoW64 means significantly lower memory and disk requirements. I would absolutely install Windows without WoW64 if I could get away with it... but I can't, because I need tools like WinSCP that haven't made x64 builds available.
There are some other very good reasons; too many to go into here, but one is that ASLR is crippled on 32-bit systems, in 32-bit subsystems, and in 32-bit binaries. It's not a Windows-only problem, either.

winscpnet.dll assembly targets "AnyCPU". So you can use it both in 32-bit and 64-bit environments. We will need more details about your problem to help you.
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe. It would really be helpful if this interface was 64bit.
"Technical constraints" usually means there isn't a programmer that uses the required platform, nor has the expertise to optimize for 64 bit. Since that expertise doesn't exist here, I suppose I'll keep looking.
There are no plans for that.
WinSCP was not able to detect folder, where the dragged files(s) was dropped. etc.
Drag and drop from 32-bit apps into Windows Explorer doesn't work properly under 64-bit XP. There's something about the 64-bit explorer such that when the item is dragged from WinSCP to an explorer window, a folder entitled (for instance) scp51328 is created in the explorer, and then WinSCP itself complains with the "WinSCP was not able to detect folder, where the dragged file(s) was dropped. Either ...".
I think that's the reason that the TortoiseSVN guys have an x64 version as well as an x86 version.
Anyhow, if you need access or work done on a 64-bit platform, you can get to me from the contact links at www.pagaros.com.au.
