Just got it to work!
Specs:
Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
MATLAB R2007b 64-bit
Steps:
1) Install Visual C++ 2008 Express http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2008-editions/express
- It doesn't come with the x64 bit compilers (thanks cheap-o Microsoft)
2) Install Microsoft SDK 6.1
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=F26B1AA4-741A-433A-9BE5-FA919850BDBF&displaylang=en
- Make sure that the x64 compilers option is selected _before_ installing.
3) In "mpgwrite/src/Makefile"
change "$(MCC) $(MCFLAGS) " to "-v -DWIN32"
4) Open "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\Visual Studio 2008 x64 Win64 Command Prompt"
5) Navigate to the mpgwrite/src folder
6) Run nmake -f Makefile
7) Move mpgwrite.mexw64 to mpgwrite folder (out of the src folder)
8) Add mpgwrite folder to your MATLAB path

Works excellently. Found out how to make CMYK tiffs for publication. Follow this code:
figure('InvertHardcopy','off','Color',[1 1 1]); % Force the background to be white
plot(x, y);
export_fig([filepath filename 'full'], '-tif', '-cmyk', '-r300'); % For CMYK 300 DPI tiff images
