---------------------------------------------

We can ensure the 64-bit tools are used at configuration time now: https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/commit/d079e71c290c3c55a2db5180953daf014a964c25

> Mesos must be built with the 64-bit tools. Previously, we added a
> dependency which checked if a certain environment variable was set. When
> it failed, the message would be a cryptic message:
>     error MSB6006: "cmd.exe" exited with code 255.
> As the environment variable had to be picked up by every toolchain
> (Visual Studio Code, CMake, MSBuild, Visual Studio), it was a frequent
> cause of build frustrations.
