This does indeed seem like a problem in the Win64 compiler cause the 
Win32 one is working (are you using the trunk version?)

You can compile and debug FPC from within Lazarus IDE. Just open 
compiler/pp.lpi (or maybe compiler/ppx86_64.lpi in your case) and 
compile it (for 2.5.1 you need a 2.4.0 as compiler for the compiler).
