To be best of my knowledge, the position of Apple regarding Carbon is
that won't ever be supported in 64bits mode. Cocoa is the way to go if
you want your app to be 64-bits compatible. The good thing is that
Cocoa already supports (and for several MacOSX) what should be needed
to implement a fast video out driver for Darwin.
